Difference Equations: Theory, Applications and Advanced Topics, Third Edition - Paperback

by Ronald E. Mickens (Author)

This book provides a broad introduction to the mathematics of difference equations and their applications. Many worked examples illustrate how to calculate both exact and approximate solutions to special classes of difference equations. Along with more problems and an expanded bibliography, this edition includes two new chapters on special topics (such as discrete Cauchy-Euler equations) and the application of difference equations to complex problems arising in the mathematical modeling of phenomena in engineering and the natural and social sciences.
