The absence of satisfactory results that address the stability analysis of nonlinear incommensurate Fractional-order Difference Systems (FoDSs) as well as the impossibility of establishing a proper Lyapunov function that helps us to reveal any stability outcome for those systems, are considered some significant nonlinear problems that should be taken into account. To overcome such dilemmas, the present work provides some novel convenient conditions that can be utilized to ensure the asymptotic stability of those systems. In particular, through utilizing some features of the Z-transform scheme, we intend to propose certain results that aim to reveal the stability of the nonlinear incommensurate fractional-order difference system formulated in the sense of the Caputo difference operator. These novel results are completely confirmed by demonstrating the stability of the numerical solutions for two nonlinear difference systems with incommensurate fractional-orders.
