Abstract

In this paper we give some theoretical explanations related to the representation for the general solution of the system of the higher-order rational difference equations

xn+1=1+2ynk3+ynk,yn+1=1+2znk3+znk,zn+1=1+2xnk3+xnk,

where n, k∈ ℕ0, the initial values xk, xk+1, …, x0, yk, yk+1, …, y0, zk, zk+1, …, z1 and z0 are arbitrary real numbers do not equal −3. This system can be solved in a closed-form and we will see that the solutions are expressed using the famous Fibonacci and Lucas numbers.
