  2. = ( ) f x y Affine Difference Equations---Slope bigger than 1 = y x n a

  3. = ( ) f x y Affine Difference Equations---Slope bigger than 1 = y x n a

  4. Affine Difference Equations---Slope less than -1 = y x n a = ( ) f x y

  5. Affine Difference Equations---Slope smaller than 1 = y x = ( ) f x y n a fixed pt What if we start iterating with a point that lies to the left of the fixed point?

  6. Affine Difference Equations---Slope in (-1,0). = y x n a fixed pt = ( ) f x y

  7. Affine Difference Equations---Slope equal to1 = ( ) f x x + = ( 1) ( ) A n A n = + ( ) f x x k + = + ( 1) ( ) A n A n k

  8. Conclusions: Long term behavior of solutions to affine difference equations: A( 1) ( ) iterating n kA n b + = + = kx b + ( ) f x | | 1 k If , the sequence (A(n)) , n = 1, 2, 3,. . . blows up . That is, The fixed point is a repelling fixed point. If , the sequence (A(n)) , n = 1, 2, 3,. . . Converges to the fixed point of the function. That is, ( ) A n as n 0 | | 1 k b ( ) A n as n 1 k The fixed point is an attracting fixed point.
