    The authors consider a fourth-order difference equation of \(p\)-Laplacian type. In particular, they look for the existence of homoclinic solutions of the problem. Homoclinicity means that the solution satisfies \(u(k)\to0\) as \(k\to\pm\infty\). The methodology used to study this problem is variational. The paper seems to be well written, and it likely will be of interest to researchers interested in discrete boundary value problems.
