Aims & Scope

SYMMETRY: CULTURE AND SCIENCE is a transdisciplinary refereed journal for representatives of various fields of art, science, and technology, who share a common interest in symmetry.

The journal’s mission is to create an inspiring platform for experts who otherwise could not meet or discuss their research on the basis of symmetry’s general principles.

Symmetry aims at conveying to them knowledge, methods, and novelties which are applicable to their main fields of study and creative work.

Symmetry is suitable for such a bridging function.

It is a concept, a phenomenon, a class of properties, and a method.

It is present in almost all disciplines and fields of art and technology.

As a concept, it has roots in both science and art.

As a phenomenon, symmetry or its lack is present in all fields of art, science, and technology.

Finally, properties and methods, based on the application and the investigation of symmetry (and symmetry breaking) are transferred from one field to another.

Symmetry is understood here in a broad sense, and approach to its study will be referred to as symmetrology.

In contrast to the common geometric concept, one can speak about a more general scientific meaning of symmetry if: (i) under any kind of transformation (operation), (ii) at least one property, (iii) of an object is left invariant (intact).

This generalised concept of symmetry makes possible the application of symmetry to both animate and inanimate material objects, as well as to products of our mind.

In addition to geometric (morphological) symmetries (such as reflection, rotation, translation, etc.), the scope of the journal covers functional symmetries and asymmetries (e.g., in the human brain), gauge symmetries (of physical phenomena), and properties, like color, tone, shading, weight, and so on (of artistic objects).
