On the solution of random linear difference equations with Laplace transform method

Abstract

In this study, Laplace transformation, which is very important for solutions to initial value problems, is examined. To solve the initial value problem of a discrete-time equation, Laplace implements the conversion method. Here, Laplace transformation is used to obtain an approach to the solutions of random difference equations formed by randomizing components of deterministic difference equations. For random behavior of linear difference equations under random effects, uniform, geometric, binomial, Poisson, and Bernouilli distributions are used, and approximate expected value, variance, standard deviation, and confidence interval of equations obtained by Laplace transformation are calculated. The results were obtained through the Maple package program. © 2023 The Authors. Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
