From the Toda lattice to the Volterra lattice and back (Q1429205)

This paper aims to discuss the relationship between the multiple Hamiltonian structures for the finite Toda and Volterra lattices of type \(B_n\) (and so \(C_n\)). The starting point is the existing Lax pairs of the Toda lattices of type \(A_n\), and the key is to apply the Poisson involution theorem and a generalization of Moser's recipe [\textit{J. Moser}, Adv. Math. 16, 197--220 (1975; Zbl 0303.34019)] to transform the Volterra lattices into the Toda lattices of type \(A_n\). A general theorem is also furnished for inheriting a Poisson bracket for the fixed-point set of a Poisson action and for its another application to the periodic Toda and Volterra lattices of type \(A_n\), refer to \textit{R. L. Fernandes} and \textit{P. Vanhaecke} [Commun. Math. Phys. 221, 169--196 (2001; Zbl 0991.37038)].
