On the asymptotics of the difference equation with a proportional delay

This paper deals with asymptotic properties of a vector difference equation with delayed argument Δxk = Axk +Bx(λk], 0 < λ < 1, k = 0,1,2,..., where A, B are constant matrices and the term [λk] is the integer part of λk. Our aim is to emphasize some resemblances between the asymptotic behaviour of this delay difference equation and its continuous counterpart
