Affine lattice coordinates #
Coordinate transport for Lemma 5.5 (lem:boundary-window) and Theorem 5.1
(thm:twofactor) in paper/nivat.tex.
A configuration and its window are transported together. The affine map s
acts on sites, while its additive part t acts on translation and period vectors.
Reindexing lattice sites preserves finite range (Section 1.1).
Transport both a configuration and its window along affine lattice coordinates.
This is the basis-and-origin change in Lemma 5.5 (lem:boundary-window);
s is the affine bijection and t its linear part.
A period in affine coordinates transports through the linear part.
This is the return to the original lattice in Theorem 5.1 (thm:twofactor).
Difference operators transport with their lattice direction.
This is the mixed-difference coordinate change in Theorem 5.1 (thm:twofactor).
