Finite Binomial Difference Cancellation
Abstract
Finite binomial expansions cancel the charged commutator at a sufficient lattice order.
Let D be any finite-rank ordinary lattice: its Gram matrix G is integral and symmetric with even diagonal. Rank zero is included. No positivity, nondegeneracy or unimodularity is assumed. Charges are Fin(rank(D)) to Z, oscillators are complex multivariate polynomials indexed by Fin(rank(D)) times N, and V is the finite-support charge direct sum of that polynomial algebra. Write B for the original integral bilinear form. Normalized coefficient q means the Laurent coefficient at -q-1. The vacuum is single(0,1), Y is the constructed actual state-field map, T is the charge-sensitive translation, and mu(a,q,b)=(Y(a))_q b.
Let V be any complex module and K an integer two-index kernel with independent lower bounds on both coordinates. Define expansion_b(K)(k,l) as the finite sum of (-1)^j choose(b,j) K(k-b+j,l-j), and rawDelta f(k,l)=f(k-1,l)-f(k,l-1). Finite Option(N) splitting and signed Pascal reindexing prove the difference law.
Theorem 1.1 (One difference raises the integer exponent).

Commentary.
For every integer b, rawDelta(expansion_b(K))=expansion_(b+1)(K). All sums have finite kernel support; this covers negative b.

Commentary.
rawDelta iterated (-b).toNat kills expansion_b(K) minus integerSign(b) times flip(expansion_b(flip(K))). For b>=0, finite binomial reflection makes the discrepancy zero already. For b<0, iteration raises b to zero and both orders become the same kernel.

Commentary.
For every two-index endomorphism distribution, natural order and integer first,second indices, deltaEnd^order equals the finite range sum of (-1)^offset choose(order,offset) times the distribution at (first+order-offset,second+offset). Commuting coefficient shifts prove it.
