Symmetry in Diamond Theory:
Robbing Peter to Pay Paul
"Groups arise in most areas of pure and applied mathematics, usually as a set of operators or transformations of some structure. The appearance of a group generally reflects some kind of symmetry in the object under study, and such symmetry may be considered one of the fundamental notions of mathematics."
"Counter-change is sometimes known as Robbing Peter to Pay Paul."
