### FIXED POINTS OF MEROMORPHIC SOLUTIONS FOR DIFFERENCE RICCATI EQUATION

#### Abstract

In this paper, we investigate fixed points of meromorphic functions $f(z)$ for difference Riccati equations, and obtain some estimates of exponents of convergence of fixed points of $f(z)$ and shifts $f(z+n)$, differences $\triangle f(z) = f(z+1)-f(z)$ and divided differences $\frac{\triangle f(z)}{f(z)}$.
