Review text

The \(m\)-th order nonhomogeneous difference equation is investigated \[ \Delta^m x_n + f(n,x_n,\Delta x_n,\ldots,\Delta^{m-1} x_n)=h_n, \] where \(h:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{R}\), \(f:\mathbb{N}\times\mathbb{R}^m\to \mathbb{R}\), \(m\geq 2\) under the hypothesis that \[ |f(n,x_n,\Delta x_n,\ldots,\Delta^{m-1} x_n)|\leq \sum_{i=0}^{m-1}g_i(n)|\Delta^i x_n|^{t_i}, \] where \[ g_i:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{R}_+\cup\{0\},\qquad t_i\in(0,1\rangle, \quad i=0,1,\ldots,m-1. \] A typical result is the following. If the series \(\sum_{j=n_0}^\infty|h_j|\) and \(\sum_{j=n_0}^\infty j^{(m-i-1)t_i}g_i(j)\), \(i=0,1,\ldots,m-1\) are convergent, then there exist solutions \(x_n\) of the above equation which possesses the asymptotic behavior \[ \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{\Delta^i x_n}{(m-1)^{(i)}n^{(m-i-1)}} =\text{const},\qquad i=0,1,\ldots,m-1. \]
