Abstract

We investigate which polynomials can possibly occur as factors in the denominators of rational solutions of a given partial linear difference equation (PLDE). Two kinds of polynomials are to be distinguished, we call them periodic and aperiodic. The main result is a generalization of a well-known denominator bounding technique for univariate equations to PLDEs. This generalization is able to find all the aperiodic factors of the denominators for a given PLDE.
