Boundary effects in the stepwise structure of the Lyapunov spectra and corresponding wavelike structure of the Lyapunov vectors are discussed numerically in quasi-one-dimensional systems of many hard disks. Four different types of boundary conditions are constructed by combinations of periodic boundary conditions and hard-wall boundary conditions, and each leads to different stepwise structures of the Lyapunov spectra. We show that for some Lyapunov exponents in the step region, the spatial y component of the corresponding Lyapunov vector deltaq(yj), divided by the y component of momentum p(yj), exhibits a wavelike structure as a function of position q(xj) and time t. For the other Lyapunov exponents in the step region, the y component of the corresponding Lyapunov vector deltaq(yj) exhibits a time-independent wavelike structure as a function of q(xj). These two types of wavelike structure are used to categorize the type and sequence of steps in the Lyapunov spectra for each different type of boundary condition.
