Abstract :
Our aim in this paper is to investigate the boundedness, the persistence, the
global attractivity, the existence of periodic solutions of period 2, and the oscillatory
nature of solutions of the equation
xnq1sf xn, xny1., ns0, 1, . . . ,
where f is a continuous, positive, and decreasing function on w0, `.2 _ 0, 0.4. The
results are applied to the difference equation
A 1

where A, p, qg 0, `..
