On the existence of 6-cycles for some families of difference equations of third order. (English) Zbl 1540.39010

The authors prove the non-existence of 6-cycles for a specific class of third-order difference equations involving continuous symmetric bivariate functions. In the absence of the symmetric property, they determine the potential 6-cycles and describe avenues for further studies concerning cycles of other lengths.
