An Introduction to Difference Equations

This book integrates both classical and modern treatments of difference equations. It contains the most updated and comprehensive material, yet the presentation is simple enough for the book to be used by advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students. This third edition includes more proofs, more graphs, and more applications. The author has also updated the contents by adding a new chapter on Higher Order Scalar Difference Equations, and also recent results on local and global stability of one-dimensional maps, a new section on the various notions of asymptoticity of solutions, a detailed proof of Levin-May Theorem, and the latest results on the LPA flour-beetle model.

A must-read for mathematicians, scientists and engineers who want to understand difference equations and discrete dynamics Contains the most complete and comprehenive analysis of the stability of one-dimensional maps or first order difference equations Has an extensive number of applications in a variety of fields from neural network to host-parasitoid systems Includes chapters on continued fractions, orthogonal polynomials and asymptotics Lucid and transparent writing style Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras Request lecturer material: sn.pub/lecturer-material
