In this paper, we establish several properties of the block spaces $B_q^{0,v}$. Our primary contribution resolves an open question regarding the relationship between $B_q^{0,v}$ and the Zygmund-type space $L(\log L)^{1+v}$ by demonstrating that $B_q^{0,v}$ is a proper subspace of $L(\log L)^{1+v}$. Furthermore, we prove that the union of all block spaces $B_q^{0,v}$ for $1 < q \le \infty$ is strictly contained within $L(\log L)^{1+v}$.
We consider the general second order difference equation $x_{n+1}=F(x_n,x_{n-1})$ in which $F$ is continuous and of mixed monotonicity in its arguments. In equations with negative terms, a persistent set can be a proper subset of the positive orthant, which motivates studying global stability with respect to compact invariant domains. In this paper, we assume that $F$ has a semi-convex compact invariant domain, then make an extension of $F$ on a rectangular domain that contains the invariant domain. The extension preserves the continuity and monotonicity of $F.$ Then we use the embedding technique to embed the dynamical system generated by the extended map into a higher dimensional dynamical system, which we use to characterize the asymptotic dynamics of the original system. Some illustrative examples are given at the end.
