Dynamics and solutions of a fifth-order nonlinear difference equation (Q1727299)

Summary: The main objective of this paper is to study the behavior of the rational difference equation of the fifth-order \(y_{n + 1} = \alpha y_n + \beta y_n y_{n - 3} /(A y_{n - 4} + B y_{n - 3})\), \(n = 0,1, \ldots\), where \(\alpha, \beta, A\), and \(B\) are real numbers and the initial conditions \(y_{- 4}, y_{- 3}, y_{- 2}, y_{- 1}\) and \(y_0\) are positive real numbers such that \(A y_{- 4} + B y_{- 3} \neq 0\). Also, we obtain the solution of some special cases of this equation.
