Abstract

As a consequence of some general results we find the asymptotic expansions for the recurrence \(x_{n+1}=\frac{x_{n}}{1+\beta x_{n-k}}\), \(\beta >0\). This can be viewed as a modified version of the well-known discrete delay logistic model \(x_{n+1}=\frac{\alpha x_{n}}{1+\beta x_{n-k}}\), \(\alpha \ge 1 \), \(\beta >0\). We mention that in this case appear a real constant associated with this sequence. Moreover, for various other recursive sequences we find their asymptotic expansions.
