Properties of Schwarzian difference equations

Shuang-Ting Lan, Zong-Xuan Chen

Abstract:
We consider the Schwarzian type difference equation
$$
 \Big[\frac{\Delta^{3}f(z)}{\Delta f(z)}-\frac{3}{2}
 \Big(\frac{\Delta^{2}f(z)}{\Delta f(z)}\Big)^{2}\Big]^{k}=R(z),
 $$
where R(z) is a nonconstant rational function. We study the existence of rational solutions and value distribution of transcendental meromorphic solutions with finite order of the above equation.
