N-ary Circled Times Operator Symbol
⨂ is the N-ary circled times operator, used as a math operator with a circled multiplication mark.
U+2A02
⨂ is a mathematical operator symbol featuring a circled “times.” It’s known by the Unicode name “N-ARY CIRCLED TIMES OPERATOR” and is used in formal notation. You can copy it directly into documents, code, or design mockups.
N-ary Circled Times Operator Symbol Meaning
⨂ (U+2A02) is the “N-ary circled times operator,” a Unicode character designed for math contexts where a circled multiplication/times operator is needed. The “N-ary” part signals usage in expressions that can involve more than two terms, typically in formal operator notation. Visually, it reads like a circled multiplication, making it suitable for representing an operator rather than a simple symbol like “×” in text. It’s also commonly used in technical and educational material where consistent, Unicode-safe math typography matters.
Common uses
- •Writing formal math statements that use a circled “times” operator
- •Labeling variables or operators in lecture notes and textbooks
- •Marking n-ary operations in equations or problem statements
- •Creating consistent math symbols in diagrams and technical documents
- •Using a distinct operator icon in educational content or worksheets
