In this paper, the following fourth-order rational difference equation $$x_{n+1}=\frac{{x_n^b}+x_n-2x_{n-3}^b+a}{{x_n^bx_{n-2}+x_{n-3}^b+a}$$, n=0, 1, 2,..., where a, b ${\in}$ [0, ${\infty}$) and the initial values $X_{-3},\;X_{-2},\;X_{-1},\;X_0\;{\in}\;(0,\;{\infty})$, is considered and the rule of its trajectory structure is described clearly out. Mainly, the lengths of positive and negative semicycles of its nontrivial solutions are found to occur periodically with prime period 15. The rule is $1^+,\;1^-,\;1^+,\;4^-,\;3^+,\;1^-,\;2^+,\;2^-$ in a period, by which the positive equilibrium point of the equation is verified to be globally asymptotically stable.

In this paper we investigate the boundedness character of the positive solutions of the rational difference equation of the form $$x_{n+1}=\frac{a_0+{{\sum}^k_{j=1}}a_jx_{n-j+1}}{b_0+{{\sum}^k_{j=1}}b_jx_{n-j+1}},\;\;n=0,\;1,...$$ where $k{\in}N,\;and\;a_j,b_j,\;j=0,\;1,...,\;k $, are nonnegative numbers such that $b_0+{{\sum}^k_{j=1}}b_jx_{n-j+1}>0$ for every $n{\in}N{\cup}\{0\}$. In passing we confirm several conjectures recently posed in the paper: E. Camouzis, G. Ladas and E. P. Quinn, On third order rational difference equations(part 6), J. Differ. Equations Appl. 11(8)(2005), 759-777.

In this paper, we investigate a certain type of q-difference Riccati equation in the complex plane. We prove that q-difference Riccati equation possesses a one parameter family of meromorphic solutions if it has three distinct meromorphic solutions. Furthermore, we find that all meromorphic solutions of q-difference Riccati equation and corresponding second order linear q-difference equation can be expressed by q-gamma function if this q-difference Riccati equation admits two distinct rational solutions and $q{\in}{\mathbb{C}}$ such that 0 < ${\mid}q{\mid}$ < 1. The growth and value distribution of differences of meromorphic solutions of q-difference Riccati equation are also treated.

In this paper, we solve the difference equation $x_{n+1}={\frac{x_nx_{n-2}}{ax_n-bx_{n-2}}}$, n = 0, 1, …, where a and b are positive real numbers and the initial values x_-2, x_-1 and x₀ are real numbers. We also find invariant sets and discuss the global behavior of the solutions of aforementioned equation.

In this paper, we investigate the invariant interval, periodic character, semicycle and global attractivity of all positive solutions of the equation $Y_{n+1}\;=\;\frac{p+qy_{n-k}}{1+y_n+ry_{n-k}}$, n = 0, 1, ..., where the parameters p, q, r and the initial conditions $y_{-k}$, ..., $y_{-1}$, $y_0$ are positive real numbers, k $\in$ {1, 2, 3, ...}. It is worth to mention that our results solve the open problem proposed by Kulenvic and Ladas in their monograph [Dynamics of Second Order Rational Difference Equations: with Open Problems and Conjectures, Chapman & Hall/CRC, Boca Raton, 2002]

In this note we study positive solutions of the mth order rational difference equation $x_n=(a_0+\sum{{m\atop{i=1}}a_ix_{n-i}/(b_0+\sum{{m\atop{i=1}}b_ix_{n-i}$, where n = m,m+1,m+2, $\ldots$ and $x_0,\ldots,x_{m-1}$ > 0. We describe a sufficient condition on nonnegative real numbers $a_0,a_1,\ldots,a_m,b_0,b_1,\ldots,b_m$ under which every solution $x_n$ of the above equation tends to the limit $(A-b_0+\sqrt{(A-b_0)^2+4_{a_0}B}$/2B as $n{\rightarrow}{\infty}$, where $A=\sum{{m\atop{i=1}}\;a_i$ and $B=\sum{{m\atop{i=1}}\;b_i$.

In this article, we mainly use Nevanlinna theory to investigate some special difference equations of malmquist type such as $f^2+({\Delta}_cf)^2={\beta}^2$, $f^2+({\Delta}_cf)^2=R$, $f{^{\prime}^2}+({\Delta}_cf)^2=R$ and $f^2+(f(z+c))^2=R$, where ${\beta}$ is a nonzero small function of f and R is a nonzero rational function respectively. These discussions extend one related result due to C. C. Yang et al. in some sense

In this paper, we investigate the boundedness character, the periodic character and the global behavior of positive solutions of the difference equation $$x_{n+1}=p_n+\frac{x_n}{x_{n-1}},\;n=0,1,{\cdots}$$ where $\{p_n\}$ is a two periodic sequence of nonnegative real numbers and the initial conditions $x_{-1}$, $x_0$ are arbitrary positive real numbers.
