Abstract

In this paper, we show that if the equations

$$\begin{aligned} w(z+1)w(z-1)+a(z)\frac{w'(z)}{w(z)}=\frac{P(z,w(z))}{Q(z,w(z))}, \end{aligned}$$

and

$$\begin{aligned} (w(z)w(z+1)-1)(w(z)w(z-1)-1)+a(z)\frac{w'(z)}{w(z)}=\frac{P(z,w(z))}{Q(z,w(z))}, \end{aligned}$$

where a(z) is rational, P(zw) and Q(zw) are coprime polynomials of w(z) with rational functions coefficients, have a non-rational meromorphic solution with hyper-order less than one, then the degrees of the numerator and denominator on the right sides of the equations have to meet certain conditions.
