Abstract: We discuss a discretization of the quantum Toda field theory associated with a semisimple finite-dimensional Lie algebra or a tamely-laced infinite-dimensional Kac-Moody algebra G, generalizing the previous construction of discrete quantum Liouville theory for the case G=A1. The model is defined on a discrete two-dimensional lattice, whose spatial direction is of length L. In addition we also find a "discretized extra dimension" whose width is given by the rank r of G, which decompactifies in the large r limit. For the case of G=AN or AN1(1), we find a symmetry exchanging L and N under appropriate spatial boundary conditions. The dynamical time evolution rule of the model is a quantizations of the so-called Y-system, and the theory can be well-described by the quantum cluster algebra. We discuss possible implications for recent discussions of quantum chaos, and comment on the relation with the quantum higher Teichmuller theory of type AN.
