In Section 3, since relation (6) is valid only for n ≥ 2r, the condition n ≥ r in relation (9) should be replaced by n ≥ 2r. When r ≤ n ≤ 2r − 1, relation (9) still holds but now relations (6) and (7) should be replaced, respectively, by the relationsandthe asterisk again denoting omission of the last column. The proof of (9) for r ≤ n ≤ 2r − 1 is exactly similar to its proof for n ≥ 2r.

Abstract It is known that every solution to the second-order difference equation $x_{n}=x_{n-1}+x_{n-2}=0$ x n = x n − 1 + x n − 2 = 0 , $n\ge 2$ n ≥ 2 , can be written in the following form $x_{n}=x_{0}f_{n-1}+x_{1}f_{n}$ x n = x 0 f n − 1 + x 1 f n , where $f_{n}$ f n is the Fibonacci sequence. Here we find all the homogeneous linear difference equations with constant coefficients of any order whose general solution have a representation of a related form. We also present an interesting elementary procedure for finding a representation of general solution to any homogeneous linear difference equation with constant coefficients in terms of the coefficients of the equation, initial values, and an extension of the Fibonacci sequence. This is done for the case when all the roots of the characteristic polynomial associated with the equation are mutually different, and then it is shown that such obtained representation also holds in other cases. It is also shown that during application of the procedure the extension of the Fibonacci sequence appears naturally.

Vasil’eva, [2], demonstrates a close connection between the explicit formulae for solutions to the linear difference equation with constant coefficients(1.1)where z is an n-vector, A an n×n constant matrix, τ>0, and a corresponding differential equation with constant coefficients(1.2)(1.2) is obtained from (1.1) by replacing the difference z(t—τ) by the first two terms of its Taylor Series expansion, combined with a suitable rearrangement of the terms.

In this manuscript, we focus on the brief study of finding the solution to and analyzingthe homogeneous linear difference equation in a neutrosophic environment, i.e., we interpreted the solution of the homogeneous difference equation with initial information, coefficient and both as a neutrosophic number. The idea for solving and analyzing the above using the characterization theorem is demonstrated. The whole theoretical work is followed by numerical examples and an application in actuarial science, which shows the great impact of neutrosophic set theory in mathematical modeling in a discrete system for better understanding the behavior of the system in an elegant manner. It is worthy to mention that symmetry measure of the systems is employed here, which shows important results in neutrosophic arena application in a discrete system.

AbstractSolutions of a homogeneous (r + 1)-term linear difference equation are given in two different forms. One involves the elements of a certain matrix, while the other is in terms of certain lower Hessenberg determinants. The results generalize some earlier results of Brown [1] for the solution of a 3-term linear difference equation.

A solution is given for un + 1 in terms of u1 and u0, where the elements of the sequence {un} satisfy the linear difference equationTwo linearly independent solutions of the equation are written as determinants and relations are given which can be used to check the evaluation of these determinants.

AbstractThe paper uses the factorisation method to discuss solutions of period three for the difference equationwhich has been proposed as a simple mathematical model for the effect of frequency dependent selection in genetics. Numerical values are obtained for the critical values of a at which solutions of period three first appear. In addition, the interval in which stable solutions are possible has been determined. Exact solutions are given for the case a = 4 and these have been used to check the results.

We apply the difference-differential Galois theory developed by Hardouin and Singer to compute the differential-algebraic relations among the solutions to a second-order homogeneous linear difference equation [Formula: see text] where the coefficients [Formula: see text] are rational functions in [Formula: see text] with coefficients in [Formula: see text]. We develop algorithms to compute the difference-differential Galois group associated to such an equation, and show how to deduce the differential-algebraic relations among the solutions from the defining equations of the Galois group.
