Stability of Hyperbolic Equilibrium Solution of Second Order Nonlinear Rational Difference Equation

Our goal in this paper is to investigate the global asymptotic stability of the hyperbolicequilibrium solution of the second order rational difference equationxn+1=α+βxn+γxn-1/A+Bxn+Cxn-1, n=0,1,2,…, where the parameters A≥0 and B, C, α, β, γ are positive real numbers and the initial conditions x-1, x0 are nonnegative real numbers such that A+Bx0+Cx-1>0. In particular, we solve Conjecture 5.201.1 proposed by Camouzis and Ladas in their book (2008) which appeared previously in Conjecture 11.4.2 in Kulenović and Ladas monograph (2002)
