Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the growth of the meromorphic solutions of the following nonlinear difference equations f(z)n+Pn-1(f)=0, where n≥2 and Pn-1(f) is a difference polynomial of degree at most n-1 in f with small functions as coefficients.Moreover, we give two examples to show that one conjecture proposed by Yang and Laine [2] does not hold in general if the hyper-order of f(z) is no less than 1.
