On global asymptotic stability of nonlinear higher-order difference equations (Q413720): Difference between revisions

The authors generalize the main theorem of \textit{E. Liz} and \textit{J. B. Ferreiro} [Appl. Math. Lett. 15, No. 6, 655--659 (2002; Zbl 1036.39013)] and some other global stability results for nonautonomous higher-order difference equations to the case when contraction-type steps are incorporated together with the steps when the difference sequence can increase. The relation to the \(\theta \)-method for discretization of delay equations is discussed, and some sufficient stability conditions for the numerical scheme are deduced.
