The authors propose a class of discrete dynamical systems associated with affine root systems, by constructing new representations of the affine Weyl group. The constructed representation provides naturally a discrete dynamical system from the lattice part of the affine Weyl group. It is shown how discrete dynamical systems could be applied to the problem of symmetry of nonlinear differential systems. As an application, the authors consider examples of difference and differential systems of Painlevé type.
