Second Order Transfer Equations; and Generalizations to Arbitrary Orders

Abstract

The author provides a solution to the equation $y(s+2)={\mathcal{T}}^{2}y=F(s,y,\mathcal{T}y)=F(s,y(s),y(s+1))$; where $y$ is holomorphic; and $F$ is a holomorphic function with specific decay conditions. This result is provided using infinite compositions, and a limiting process. The technique is generalized to arbitrary $k$'th order transfer equations: $u(s+k)=F(s,u(s),u(s+1),...,u(s+k-1))$. The technique is derived by utilizing solutions $w(s+1)=\mathcal{T}w=F(s,w)$ and sequentially approximating $u$, or $y$, with a sequence of said $w$.
