There are many publications on theoretical analysis of deterministic difference equations and stochastic differential equations. However, relatively few theoretical papers are published to consider the positivity of solutions of discrete-time stochastic difference equations (DSDEs), and no theoretical papers investigate the global stability of nontrivial solutions of DSDEs with nonlinear terms. In this paper, we consider a DSDE model that is a generalization of two-dimensional nonlinear models of stochastic predator-prey interactions, and show the positivity and global stability of the nontrivial solutions by using our new discretized version of the It^o formula. In addition, our results are compared with those of continuous-time stochastic differential equations and discrete-time deterministic difference equations. Numerical simulations are introduced to support the results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
