Mar 7, 2021 at 6:55 comment added Gerry Myerson You waited less than half-a-day for your post on m.se to get an answer. It's recommended to wait several days before giving up on m.se to post here. Anyway, I have posted an answer there, as I think that's a more appropriate site for the question.

Mar 7, 2021 at 6:32 comment added Bogdan Imply convergence if the initial data is close to the fixed point (or if the sequence come close that point at some $n$). But in general I don't see why stable fixed point imply convergence. Do you know a proof for that?
Mar 7, 2021 at 6:30 comment added Gerry Myerson In the earliest of the three stackexchange posts, the user gives the formula for the fixed point, and the reason for its stability for $1<r<3$. A stable fixed point implies convergence to that fixed point, so it seems to me that what you want (for your first question) is already there.
Mar 7, 2021 at 6:06 comment added Bogdan Practically I want some technical details about the proof of convergence (not the existence of 2,3-cycles). I studied a lot the problem and I know it's interesting story. But I cannot figure out even in these simple cases how to prove the convergence to the same values for any starting point $a\in (0,1)$.
Mar 7, 2021 at 5:58 comment added Bogdan I will see the video. I understand what you say but it's not clear for me...
Mar 7, 2021 at 5:44 comment added Bogdan Where I can find a proof that it is indeed convergence on those points with $g'(x)<0$ no matter what is our choice of the starting value $a$? So we can take $a$ some distance apart from $x$.
