Convergence of a Logistic Type Ultradiscrete Model

الملخص EN

We derive a piecewise linear difference equation from logistic equations with time delay by ultradiscretization.

The logistic equation that we consider in this paper has been shown to be globally stable in the continuous and discrete time formulations.

Here, we study if ultradiscretization preserves the global stability property, analyzing the asymptotic behaviour of the obtained piecewise linear difference equation.

It is shown that our piecewise linear difference equation has a threshold property concerning global attractivity of equilibria, similar to the stable logistic equations with time delay.
