This paper investigates the dynamics of non-autonomous cooperative systems of difference equations with asymptotically constant coefficients. We are mainly interested in global attractivity results for such systems and the application of such results to evolutionary population cooperation models. We use two methods to extend the global attractivity...
This paper investigates the rate of convergence of a certain mixed monotone rational second-order difference equation with quadratic terms.

This paper investigates an autonomous discrete-time glycolytic oscillator model with a unique positive equilibrium point which exhibits chaos in the sense of Li–Yorke in a certain region of the parameters.

We use the Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) theory to investigate the stability of solutions of a system of difference equations, a certain class of a generalized May's host-parasitoid model.

In teaching mathematics to first-year undergraduates, and thus in the appropriate calculus textbooks, the task of calculating an integral that satisfies a specific first-order or second-order recurrence relation often appears. These relations are obtained mainly by applying the method of integration by parts. Calculating such integrals is usually t...
