Abstract

The Hamiltonian formalism is developed for the sine-Gordon model on the spacetime light-like lattice, first introduced by Hirota. The evolution operator is explicitly constructed in the quantum variant of the model and the integrability of the corresponding classical finite-dimensional system is established.
