Review text

The author investigates boundedness, persistence and asymptotic behaviour of the positive solutions of the equation \[ {x_{k+1}=\frac{A_1}{x_k^{p_1}}+\frac{A_2}{x_{k-1}^{p_2}}+\cdots +\frac{A_n}{x_{k-n+1}^{p_n}}}, \] where \(A_1,A_2,A_3,p_i\in (0,\infty)\), \(i=1,2,\dots,n\) and \(A_i\in [0,\infty)\), \(i=4,5,\dots,n\).
