Greater-than Closed By Curve Symbol
⪧ is the “greater-than closed by curve” mathematical symbol (U+2AA7).
U+2AA7
⪧ (U+2AA7) is a mathematical character with the Unicode name “GREATER-THAN CLOSED BY CURVE.” It’s useful when you need a compact, stylized “greater-than” form that differs from the standard > sign.
Greater-than Closed By Curve Symbol Meaning
⪧ is a Unicode math symbol named “GREATER-THAN CLOSED BY CURVE” (U+2AA7). It is primarily used in mathematical and technical contexts where a specific glyph is needed rather than the common ASCII greater-than sign (>). Visually, it resembles a greater-than symbol with a curve that helps “close” or stylize the mark. Because this character is Unicode-specific, its meaning is best understood through the font and typographic conventions used in math notation. If you’re styling expressions, labeling sets, or using symbol palettes for equations, it can help match the intended notation exactly.
Common uses
- •Copying the exact symbol for mathematical typesetting in documents
- •Matching notation from textbooks, papers, or reference sheets
- •Using in web content or UI text that requires the precise Unicode glyph
- •Creating consistent symbol lists or legend entries in diagrams
- •Labeling equations or transformations that use a specialized relation glyph
Examples
