Extending horizontal periodicity across rows #
Lemma 5.8 (lem:row-lifting) of paper/nivat.tex. The boundary rule from
Lemma 5.5 supplies the recurrence in Lemma 5.4. It makes finitely many further
rows periodic. A common multiple of those row periods and the horizontal
mixed-difference direction gives a difference vanishing on a full transverse
fundamental strip; its transverse period then makes it vanish everywhere.
A row has a positive integer period in the horizontal basis direction. Lemma 5.8
(lem:row-lifting).

Equal occurring interior patterns and equal first k boundary values determine the next
boundary value, the rule in equation eq:boundary-rule. Lemma 5.5 (lem:boundary-window).

A finite family of periodic bilateral words has a common positive period, obtained by
multiplying their periods. Lemma 5.8 (lem:row-lifting).
A configuration periodic by (a,M), with M > 0, that is constant on any M consecutive
rows is constant everywhere: division with remainder moves every point into those rows.

A property determined by the next H rows propagates downward through any prescribed finite
number of rows. Lemma 5.8 (lem:row-lifting).
If each of the finitely many rows supporting the translated interior pattern is periodic,
their common period makes that pattern a periodic parameter. Lemma 5.8 (lem:row-lifting).
A boundary row is periodic when its interior rows are periodic: the boundary rule and
interior parameter satisfy the periodic-forcing lemma, including zero memory. Lemma 5.8
(lem:row-lifting), using Lemma 5.4 (lem:forcing).
A vanishing mixed difference implies that the difference in a multiple of the first
direction still has the second direction as a period. Commutation and multiples of a period
give the operator consequence of equation eq:telescoping-lift. Lemma 5.8 (lem:row-lifting).
A boundary rule and periodic initial interior rows yield a global horizontal period that is
a positive multiple of the supplied horizontal direction. Only finitely many row periods are
combined; the transverse mixed difference extends their common multiple across the plane.
