On the behavior of a system of rational difference equations $x_{n+1} = x_{n-1}/(y_nx_{n-1} - 1), y_{n+1} = y_{n-1}/(x_ny_{n-1} - 1), z_{n+1} = 1/x_nz_{n-1}$. (English) Zbl 1248.39013
Summary: We are concerned with a three-dimensional system of rational difference equations with nonzero initial values. We present solutions of the system in an explicit way and obtain the asymptotical behavior of solutions.
