The ten horns are ten kings.

and he (emph.) shall be diverse from the former ones] The king represented by the -little horn" will differ from the others, viz. by being aggressive and presumptuous.

and he shall subdue three kings put down (R.V.), as the same word is rendered in the A.V. of Daniel 5:19 and Psalms 75:7. Abase, bring down, lay low, is the idea of the word (Isaiah 2:12; Isaiah 25:11-12; Isaiah 26:5). Cf. Daniel 7:8. On the interpretation, see the Additional Note at the end of the Chapter.
