symmetrize

Create mirror equality

To symmetrize is to make something symmetrical or balanced.

The term appears most often in mathematics and physics, where it describes operations that impose symmetry on equations, matrices, or functions: We symmetrize the tensor by averaging over all permutations.

More broadly, it can mean arranging elements to achieve visual or structural balance.
