Square Image Of Or Not Equal To Symbol Meaning
⋤ (Unicode U+22E4) is named “SQUARE IMAGE OF OR NOT EQUAL TO.” In mathematical typography, it represents a relation involving a square image operation together with a “not equal to” condition. Depending on the surrounding notation and the typesetting system you’re using, it can be used to clarify that a particular image-related term does not match another value. Because the meaning is context-dependent in math, it’s most reliable when paired with the rest of your formula or when matching the convention used by your field (for example, when porting notation from a document or font).

- •Labeling a relation in a diagram or equation layout
