Early Access articles are published articles within a journal that have not yet been assigned to a formal issue. This means they do not yet have a volume number, issue number, or page numbers assigned to them, however, they can still be found and cited using their DOI (Digital Object Identifier). Early Access publication benefits the research community by making new scientific discoveries known as quickly as possible.
Readers can access Early Access articles via the “Early Access” tab for the selected journal.
The $ k $-dimensional system of delayed discrete nonlinear equations with $ p $-Laplacian in the form
$ \left\{\begin{array}{l} \Delta \phi_{p_i} \left(x_i(n)+q_i(n)\,x_i(n-l_i)-C_i \right) = a_i(n)\,f_i(x_{i+1}(n-m_i))+b_i(n),\\ \Delta \phi_{p_k} \left(x_k(n)+q_k(n)\,x_k(n-l_k) -C_k \right) = a_k(n)\,f_k(x_1(n-m_k))+b_k(n), \end{array}\right. $
where $ i = 1,\dots,k-1 $, $ k\geq 2 $, is considered. This paper aims to present sufficient conditions for the existence of positive bounded persistent solutions of the above system with various $ (q_i(n)) $, $ i = 1,\dots,k $.
