Abstract:
A system of linear autonomous difference equations
is considered, where
,
is a real nonsingular
matrix.
In this paper it has been proved that if
is any quadratic
form and
is any positive integer, then there exists a unique
quadratic form
such that
holds if and only if
()
where
are the roots of the equation
.
A number of theorems on the stability of difference systems have
also been proved. Applying these theorems, the stability problem
of the zero solution of the nonlinear system
has been solved in the critical case when one eigenvalue of
a matrix
is equal to minus one, and others lie inside the
unit disk of the complex plane.
