Abstract

This chapter analyzes the evolution of a state variable in one-dimensional, first-order, discrete dynamical systems. It introduces a method of solution for these systems, and it characterizes the trajectory of the state variable, in relation to its steady-state equilibrium, examining the local and global (asymptotic) stability of this steady-state equilibrium.
