/ Abstract
We reformulate the singularity confinement of the discrete Toda equation. We prove the co-primeness property, which has been introduced in our previous paper (arXiv:1311.0060) as one of the integrability criteria, for the discrete Toda equation. We study three types of boundary conditions (semi-infinite, molecule, periodic) for the discrete Toda equation, and prove that the same co-primeness property holds for all the types of boundaries.
