Abstract

A typical planar system of difference equations can be folded or transformed into a scalar difference equation of order two plus a passive (non-dynamic) equation. We discuss this method and its application to identify and prove the existence or nonexistence of cycles and chaos in systems of rational difference equations with variable coefficients. These include some systems that converge to autonomous systems and some that do not, e.g. systems with periodic coefficients.
