Description

Two pillars of an effect of discrete asymmetry are discussed: 1) the breaking the corresponding symmetry at the basic level (that of the Lagrangian maybe); 2) the manifestation of asymmetry at the level of the square of modulus of the amplitude.The classification of possible types of symmetry breaking leads us to 'CPT cube'. The subtleties of asymmetry manifestations are illustrated by simple examples. (author)
