Abstract
It is shown that the nonautonomous discrete Toda equation and its Backlund transformation can be derived from the reduction of the hierarchy of the discrete KP equation and the discrete two-dimensional Toda equation. Some explicit examples of the determinant solutions of the nonautonomous discrete Toda equation including the Askey-Wilson polynomial are presented. Finally we discuss the relationship between the nonautonomous discrete Toda system and the nonautonomous discrete Lotka-Volterra equation.
