The diffusion constant and the Lyapunov exponent for the spatially periodic Lorentz gas are evaluated numerically in terms of periodic orbits. A symbolic description of the dynamics reduced to a fundamental domain is used to generate the shortest periodic orbits. Applied to a dilute Lorentz gas with finite horizon, the theory works well, but for the dense Lorentz gas the convergence is hampered by the strong pruning of the admissible orbits.
