O. Ragnisco et al., ON THE RELATION OF THE STATIONARY TODA EQUATION AND THE SYMPLECTIC MAPS, Journal of physics. A, mathematical and general, 28(3), 1995, pp. 573-588
It is proved that every solution of the stationary Toda equation in th
e generic case is represented as a discrete orbit of the symplectic ma
p obtained through nonlinearization of the Toda eigenvalue problem. As
an application, the calculation of the finite-band solution of the To
da lattice equation is reduced to the solution of a system of ODES plu
s a simple iterative process of the symplectic map.
