We deal with $m$-periodic, $n$-th order difference equations and study whether they can be globally linearized. We give an affirmative answer when $m=n+1$ and for most of the known examples appearing in the literature. Our main tool is a refinement of the Montgomery-Bochner Theorem.
Keywords: recurrences, periodic difference equations, Periodic maps, linearization..
