On an integrable system related to the relativistic Toda lattice -B\"acklund transformation and integrable discretization

Abstract

We study an integrable system related to the relativistic Toda lattice. The bilinear representation of this lattice is given and the B\"ackulund transformation obtained. A fully discrete version is also introduced with its bilinear B\"acklund transformation and Lax pair. One-soliton solution of the discrete system is presented by use of B\"acklund transformation.
