Asymmetry is the absence of, or a violation of, symmetry (the property of an object being invariant to a transformation, such as reflection). [1] Symmetry is an important property of both physical and abstract systems and it may be displayed in precise terms or in more aesthetic terms. [ 2 ]
Brandolini's law, also known as the bullshit asymmetry principle, is an internet adage coined in 2013 by Alberto Brandolini, an Italian programmer, that emphasizes the effort of debunking misinformation, in comparison to the relative ease of creating it in the first place.
The smallest asymmetric regular graphs have ten vertices; there exist 10-vertex asymmetric graphs that are 4-regular and 5-regular. [2] [3] One of the five smallest asymmetric cubic graphs [4] is the twelve-vertex Frucht graph discovered in 1939. [5] According to a strengthened version of Frucht's theorem, there are infinitely many asymmetric ...
An irreflexive, strong, [1] or strict partial order is a homogeneous relation < on a set that is transitive, irreflexive, and asymmetric; that is, it satisfies the following conditions for all ,,: Transitivity : if a < b {\displaystyle a<b} and b < c {\displaystyle b<c} then a < c {\displaystyle a<c} .
The data showed an asymmetry of up to 20% of CP-violation sensitive quantities, implying a breaking of CP-symmetry. This analysis will need to be confirmed by more data from subsequent runs of the LHC. [9] One method to search for additional CP-violation is the search for electric dipole moments of fundamental or composed particles. The ...
Humans find bilateral symmetry in faces physically attractive; [51] it indicates health and genetic fitness. [52] [53] Opposed to this is the tendency for excessive symmetry to be perceived as boring or uninteresting. Rudolf Arnheim suggested that people prefer shapes that have some symmetry, and enough complexity to make them interesting. [54]
An asymmetric relation need not have the connex property. For example, the strict subset relation is asymmetric, and neither of the sets {,} and {,} is a strict subset of the other. A relation is connex if and only if its complement is asymmetric.
In physical cosmology, baryogenesis (also known as baryosynthesis [1] [2]) is the physical process that is hypothesized to have taken place during the early universe to produce baryonic asymmetry, i.e. the imbalance of matter and antimatter (antibaryons) in the observed universe. [3]
