Abstract: We study the behavior of solutions of the Helmholtz equation $(-Delt{a}_{disc,h}-E)u_h=f_h$ on a periodic lattice as the mesh size $h$ tends to 0. Projecting to the eigenspace of a characteristic root $lambd{a}_h(xi)$ and using a gauge transformation associated with the Dirac point, we show that the gauge transformed solution $u_h$ converges to that for the equation $(P(D_x)-E)v=g$ for a continuous model on $$, where $lambd{a}_h(xi)oP(xi)$. For the case of the hexagonal and related lattices, {in a suitable energy region}, it converges to that for the Dirac equation. For the case of the square lattice, triangular lattice, {hexagonal lattice (in another energy region)} and subdivision of a square lattice, one can add a scalar potential, and the solution of the lattice Schr{"o}dinger equation $(-Delt{a}_{disc,h}+V_{disc,h}-E)u_h=f_h$ converges to that of the continuum Schr{"o}dinger equation $(P(D_x)+V(x)-E)u=f$.
