Abstract

Lie group analysis of the difference equations of the form \[ x_{n+1} =\frac{x_{n-4}x_{n-3}}{x_{n}(a_n +b_nx_{n-4}x_{n-3}x_{n-2}x_{n-1})}, \] where \(a_n\) and \(b_n\) are real sequences, is performed and non-trivial symmetries are derived. Furthermore, we find formulas for exact solutions of the equations. This work generalizes a recent result in the literature.
