Dynamics and Bifurcation of $x_{n+1}=\frac{\alpha+\beta x_{n-1}}{A+Bx_{n}+C x_{n-1}}$

Dynamics and Bifurcation of $x_{n+1}=\frac{\alpha+\beta x_{n-1}}{A+Bx_{n}+C x_{n-1}}$

The main goal of this paper is to study the bifurcation of a second order rational difference equation $$x_{n+1}=\frac{\alpha+\beta x_{n-1}}{A+Bx_{n}+Cx_{n-1}}, ~~n=0, 1, 2, \ldots$$ with positive parameters $\alpha, \beta, A, B, C$ and non-negative initial conditions $\{x_{-k}, x_{-k+1}, \ldots, x_{0}\}$. We study the dynamic behavior and the direction of the bifurcation of the period-two cycle. Numerical discussion with figures are given to support our results.
