Global attractivity in the recursive sequence <f>xn+1=(α−βxn)/(γ−xn−1)</f>

Our aim in this paper is to investigate the global attractivity of the recursive sequencexn+1=<NU>α−βxn</NU>/γ−xn−1, n=0,1,…,where <f>α&ges;0</f>, <f>β,γ>0</f>. We show that one positive equilibrium point of the equation is a global attractor with a basin that depends on certain conditions posed on the coefficients. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
