Strong limit point criteria for a class of singular discrete linear Hamiltonian systems

This paper is concerned with the limit point case for a class of singular discrete linear Hamiltonian systems. The limit point case is divided into the strong and the weak limit point cases. Several sufficient conditions for the strong limit point case are established. In consequence, two criteria of the strong limit point case for second-order formally self-adjoint vector difference equations are obtained.
