Existence of a Period-Two Solution in Linearizable Difference Equations

Consider the difference equation xn+1=f(xn,…,xn−k),n=0,1,…, where k∈{1,2,…} and the initial conditions are real numbers. We investigate the existence and nonexistence of the minimal period-two solution of this equation when it can be rewritten as the nonautonomous linear equation xn+l=∑i=1−lkgixn−i,...
