While ordinary symmetries are simply transitive permitting them to be combined into clusters of variables, other types of symmetries have more complex transitivities. This paper shows how to convert the various types of symmetry into ordinary symmetries using state-space transformations. This permits the simple transitivity of ordinary symmetry to be extended to virtually any type of symmetry.136153 bytesapplication/pdfen-USSymmetric Boolean FunctionsTransitivityConjugate SymmetryExtending Symmetric Variable-Pair Transitivities Using State-Space Transformations
