The authors study the difference equation \[ y_{n+1}=\frac{s+y_n}{r+y_{n-1}^k}, \qquad n=0,1,2,\ldots, \tag{*} \] with non-negative initial conditions and positive parameters \(r, s, k.\) They show that equation (*) has a unique equilibrium point and determine under which conditions on \(r, s, k\) the unique equilibrium point is locally asymptotically stable, globally asymptotically stable, and unstable. The authors also prove that every solution of equation (*) is bounded and persists.
