Discrete Lax pairs, reductions and hierarchies

, 2008
The term `Lax pair' refers to linear systems (of various types) that are related to nonlinear equations through a compatibility condition. If a nonlinear equation possesses a Lax pair, then the Lax pair may be used to gather information about the behaviour of the solutions to the nonlinear equation.
