Popis: We construct special solutions of the Hirota–Miwa equation for which the τ-function is a polynomial in the independent variables. Three different methods are presented: direct construction (obtained also as a limit of the soliton solutions), and the derivation of the solutions in two different determinant forms, namely Grammian and Casorati. Introducing the appropriate ansatz, we write the Hirota–Miwa equation in a nonlinear form for a single variable. In terms of the latter, the solutions obtained are rational and are reminiscent of the lump solutions for the continuous analogue of the Hirota–Miwa equation, namely the KP equation.
