Abstract:
The Cauchy problem is studied for a multidimensional difference equation in a class of functions defined at the integer points of a rational cone. We give an easy-to-check condition on the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of the equation sufficient for solvability of the problem. A multidimensional analog of the condition ensuring stability of the Cauchy problem is stated on using the notion of amoeba of an algebraic hypersurface.
Keywords:multidimensional difference equation, well-posedness of the Cauchy problem, rational cone.
