The book aims not only to disseminate these results but to foster further advances in the fields of difference equations and discrete dynamical systems. Also included are applications to economic growth modeling, population dynamics, epidemic modeling, game theory, control systems, and network analysis. The target audience for the book includes Ph.D. students, researchers, educators, and practitioners in these fields. 410 0$aSpringer Proceedings in Mathematics & Statistics,$x2194-1017 ;$v444 606 $aMathematics 606 $aMathematics 615 0$aMathematics. 615 14$aMathematics. 676 $a515.625 702 $aOlaru$b Sorin 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910842282503321 996 $aDifference equations, discrete dynamical systems and applications$91522813 997 $aUNINA
