On the Dynamics of a Higher-Order Difference Equation

This paper deals with the investigation of the following more general rational difference equation: 𝑦𝑛+1=𝛼𝑦𝑛∑/(𝛽+𝛾𝑘𝑖=0𝑦𝑝𝑛−(2𝑖+1)∏𝑘𝑖=0𝑦𝑛−(2𝑖+1)), 𝑛=0,1,2,…, where 𝛼,𝛽,𝛾,𝑝∈(0,∞) with the initial conditions 𝑥0,𝑥−1,…,𝑥−2𝑘,𝑥−2𝑘−1∈(0,∞). We investigate the existence of the equilibrium points of the consid...
