Monotonicity of Eventually Positive Solutions for a Second Order Nonlinear Difference Equation

We derive several sufficient conditions for monotonicity of eventually positive solutions on a class of second order perturbed nonlinear difference equation. Furthermore, we obtain a few nonexistence criteria for eventually positive monotone solutions of this equation. Examples are provided to illus...
