The limits of the solutions of a nonautonomous linear delay difference equation (Q1600400): Difference between revisions

For the equation \[ x_{n+1}-x_n= \sum^m_{j=1} A_j(n)(x_{n-k_j}-x_{n-\ell_j}) (n\in\mathbb{N}_0) \] with square matrices \(A_j(n)\) and non-negative integers \(k_j\) and \(\ell_j\) it is shown: If the norms \(\|A_j(n)\|\) are sufficiently small, then every solution \(x_n\) tends to a constant vector as \(n\to\infty\), which is expressible by the unique bounded solution \(Y_n\) of \[ Y_n=I- \sum^m_{j=1} \sum^{n+k_j-1}_{i=n+\ell_j}Y_{i+1}A_j(i). \]
