We also show that the RTC is gauge equivalent to the discrete AKNS hierarchy and the unitary matrix model. Relativistic Toda molecule hierarchy is also considered, along with the forced RTC. The simple approach to the discrete RTC hierarchy based on Darboux-Bäcklund transformation is proposed.LaTeX, 14 pagesHigh Energy Physics - Theorytext
