On a class of difference equations with interlacing indices

Abstract

Some results on the long-term behavior of solutions to a class of difference equations, which includes numerous nonlinear difference equations of various orders that attracted some attention in the last 15 years, are presented. We also present a natural connection among these difference equations, compare some results on the equations with some other ones in the literature, and give a list of a considerable number of difference equations which can be treated in a similar way.
