Jan 12, 2014 at 18:12 comment added Wolfgang I think your construction can even yield a (n+1,k+1) coloring, just using one additional color instead of all the negative ones, and to iterate that, just choose another origin. :) ... and yet, we can still ask if there are "minimal" pairs $(n,k)$ that only allow periodic colorings.
Jan 12, 2014 at 18:10 comment added Anthony Quas I think periodically repeating $\begin{pmatrix} 0&0&0&1\\1&2&1&2\end{pmatrix}$ is fine. There are only a handful of line directions to check: (1,0), (1,1), (1,2) and (0,1).
Jan 12, 2014 at 17:29 comment added Wolfgang you are right. Nice idea to swap colors like that - it is so useful to think "out of the box" rather than thinking in terms of affine spaces and the like.
