Boundary conditions for integrable lattices (Q1392325)

The boundary condition \(w_0= F(x,w_1,\dots, w_m)\) reduces the chain \(w_{j,x}= h(x,w_{j-1} w_j, w_{j+1})\) to a problem on the half-line. In the paper a finite-dimensional system is considered with two boundary conditions \[ w_0= F(x, w_1,\dots, w_m),\;w_{N+1}= G(X, w_{N- m},\dots, w_N). \] The boundary conditions must be compatible with the pair of symmetries. Bäcklund transformations are constructed.
