with elementary interconnection structures more and
more non-homogenous. The functional reliefs proved
these three interconnections have a more and more
marked asymmetry, the structures having a more and
more emphasized ”structural dynamism”, structural
self-organization. This structural dynamism leads to a
more and more powerful structural self-organization
property. Therefore, the non-homogeneity leads, on
the one hand, to the asymmetry, and, on the other
hand, to the more intense structural self-organization.
5 GLOBALITY: A WAY FROM
THE STRUCTURE TO THE
ARCHITECTURE
One of the most important properties of any physical
space structure is the symmetry. The transformation
that keeps the structure of the space is named auto-
morphism. Giving a space configuration, a structure,
a form, an interconnection, we can emphasize a set
of space automorphisms, which leave unchangeable
this interconnection. Thus, the emphasizing automor-
phisms form a group which describes precisely the
symmetry of the giving configuration.
The amorphous space has a total symmetry corre-
sponding to the group of all automorphisms. The
symmetry of an interconnection will be described, as
we have told, by a subgroup of all automorphisms.
The total symmetry of the space defined by n points
(nodes, permutations) will be described by S
n!
, while
a partial symmetry is expressed by a subgroup (of per-

. Therefore, symmetrical
groups S

model the symmetry of a space defined by
n nodes and inversely. The total symmetry of a space
is represented by a total interconnection, a completely
connected structure with n! nodes.
As an example, the plane figures have as constitu-
tive symmetries only the identity, rotation, translation,
reflection and reflection-translation. It is known that a
rectangle has the following four symmetries: the iden-
tity, I; the two reflections S

and S
2
vs. non-parallel
sides perpendicular bisectors, A
S

and A

; the ro-
tation with 180
◦
, R. The four automorphisms can
be represented by an interconnection, the vertexes of
which are noted 1, 2, 3 and 4. With this, we equate the
symmetries of the rectangle with following permuta-
tions (generators): I = (1 2 3 4), S
1
= (2 1 4 3),
S
2
= (4 3 2 1) and R = (3 4 1 2). The four sym-
metries form a commutative group to the composition
operation but, equating them with permutations, we
notice that these symmetries form only a subgroup of
the symmetric group of order 4, S
4!
. In this way, we
can examine the symmetry properties of plane figures,
which divide the symmetric groups S
n!
in different
subgroups. Let us note by G
S
the groups (subgroups)
of symmetries which divide the symmetric group S
n!
.
We defined at the beginning of the paper
that the globality is the behavior (structural self-
organization) of a collectivity around a property.
How does it define the globality of the plane figures
vs. symmetry property? A quantitative appreciation,
a measure of the globality vs. symmetry, which we
note Γ
n
, is given by the ratio of the order of group
of symmetries and the order of symmetric group:
