Symmetry reduction is a technique to counter state explo- sion for systems of regular structure. It relies on idealistic assumptions about indistinguishable components, which in practice may only be sim- ilar. In this paper we present a flexible algebraic approach to symmetry reduction for exploring a structure without any prior knowledge about its global symmetry. The more behavior is shared among the components, the more compression takes effect. The idea is to annotate each encoun- tered state with information about how symmetry is violated along the path leading to it. Previous solutions only allow specific types of asymme- try, such as up to bisimilarity, or seem to require expensive preprocessing of the structure. In contrast, our method appeals through its balance be- tween generality and simplicity. We include analytic and experimental results to document its efficiency. |
