different between symmetric vs antisymmetric
symmetric
English
Etymology
From Latin symmetria from Ancient Greek ????????? (summetría).
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): /s??m?t??k/
Adjective
symmetric (comparative more symmetric, superlative most symmetric)
- Symmetrical.
- (set theory) Of a relation R on a set S, such that xRy if and only if yRx for all members x and y of S (that is, if the relation holds between any element and a second, it also holds between the second and the first).
- "Is a sibling of" is a symmetric relation.
- (cryptography) Using the same key (or keys that are trivially related) for both encryption and decryption.

Adjective
antisymmetric (not comparable)
- (set theory, order theory, of a binary relation R on a set S) Having the property that, for any two distinct elements of S, at least one is not related to the other via R; equivalently, having the property that, for any x, y ? S, if both xRy and yRx then x=y.
