On the growth analysis of meromorphic solutions of finite ϕ-order of linear difference equations

Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, we investigate some growth properties of meromorphic solutions of higher-order linear difference equationA_{n}(z)f(z+n)+\dots+A_{1}(z)f(z+1)+A_{0}(z)f(z)=0,where {A_{n}(z),\dots,A_{0}(z)} are meromorphic coefficients of finite φ-order in the complex plane where φ is a non-decreasing unbounded function. We extend some earlier results of Latreuch and Belaidi [Z. Latreuch and B. Belaïdi, Growth and oscillation of meromorphic solutions of linear difference equations, Mat. Vesnik 66 2014, 2, 213–222].
