On the solutions of a second-order difference equations in terms of generalized Padovan sequences (1701.00103v1)

Abstract: This paper deals with the solution, stability character and asymptotic behavior of the rational difference equation \begin{equation*} x_{n+1}=\frac{\alpha x_{n-1}+\beta}{ \gamma x_{n}x_{n-1}},\qquad n \in \mathbb{N}{0}, \end{equation*} where $\mathbb{N}{0}=\mathbb{N}\cup \left{0\right}$, $\alpha,\beta,\gamma\in\mathbb{R}^{+}$, and the initial conditions $x_{-1}$ and $x_{0}$ are non zero real numbers such that their solutions are associated to generalized Padovan numbers. Also, we investigate the two-dimensional case of the this equation given by \begin{equation*} x_{n+1} = \frac{\alpha x_{n-1} + \beta}{\gamma y_n x_{n-1}}, \qquad y_{n+1} = \frac{\alpha y_{n-1} +\beta}{\gamma x_n y_{n-1}} ,\qquad n\in \mathbb{N}_0, \end{equation*} and this generalizes the results presented in \cite{yazlik}
