Abstract: We develop a Galois theory for systems of linear difference equations with an action of an endomorphism {sigma}. This provides a technique to test whether solutions of such systems satisfy {sigma}-polynomial equations and, if yes, then characterize those. We also show how to apply our work to study isomonodromic difference equations and difference algebraic properties of meromorphic functions.
