\section{Identification of Plane Periodic Patterns} \begin{remark} A \textit{lattice of points} of a pattern is a set of images of any particular point acted on by the translation group of the pattern. A \textit{lattice unit} of a pattern whose translation subgroup is generated by $u$ and $v$ is a parallelogram formed by a point of the pattern and its image under $u,v$, and $u + v$. A \textit{generating region} (or \textit{fundamental region}) of a periodic pattern is the smallest portion of the lattice unit whose images under the full symmetry of the group of the pattern cover the plane. \end{remark}
