Symmetry of information (in Kolmogorov complexity) is a concept that comes from formalizing the idea of how much information about a string y is contained in a string x. The situation is symmetric because it can be shown that the amount of information contained in the string y about the string x is almost exactly the same as that contained in x about y. We address symmetry of information in resource bounded environments. While symmetry still holds in space bounded environments, it probably does not hold in time bounded environments. We show that if it holds for polynomial time bounds, then one-one one-way functions cannot exist.
