Abstract: In this article we study a small random perturbation of a linear recurrence equation. If all the roots of its corresponding characteristic equation have modulus strictly less than one, the random linear recurrence goes exponentially fast to its limiting distribution in the total variation distance as time increases. By assuming that all the roots of its corresponding characteristic equation have modulus strictly less than one and some suitable conditions, we prove that this convergence happens as a switch-type, i.e., there is a sharp transition in the convergence to its limiting distribution. This fact is known as a cut-off phenomenon in the context of stochastic processes.
