Dynamics and Bifurcation of a Second Order Quadratic Rational Difference Equation

Dynamics and Bifurcation of a Second Order Quadratic Rational Difference Equation

In this paper, we study the dynamics and bifurcation of $$ x_{n+1} = \frac{\alpha+ \beta {x^2}_{n-1}}{A+B {x_n}+C{x^2}_{n-1}}, \ n=0,\ 1, \ 2, \ ... $$ with positive parameters $\alpha,\ \beta, \ A, \ B, \ C, $ and non-negative initial conditions. Among others, we investigate local stability, invariant intervals, boundedness of the solutions, periodic solutions of prime period two and global stability of the positive fixed points.
