Review text

It is known that a continuous map is the gradient of a convex function if and only if it is cyclically monotone. Also, a differentiable map \(F\) is the gradient of a function if and only if the matrices \(F'(x)\) are symmetric for all \(x\) in the domain. The authors use this connection between symmetry and monotonicity to define a measure of asymmetry for positive semidefinite matrices and to give some of its properties.
