I don't think anybody has yet mentioned the work done on symmetry in VN by our List-Editor Emeritus, Don Johnson. See his chapter on Look at the Harlequins in his Worlds in Regression, which discusses the very prominent symmetry issues in that novel with reference to Martin Gardener's The Ambidextrous Universe (which, readers will remember, cites "Pale Fire" and is in turn cited in Ada.)
