Succeeds Above Single-line Equals Sign Symbol
⪰ is a math symbol meaning “succeeds above,” used in specialized comparison or ordering notation.
U+2AB0
⪰ is a mathematical operator with a distinct “succeeds above” shape. It’s commonly used in contexts where authors want a specific ordering/comparison symbol. This page helps you understand the name, and copy it reliably across tools.
Succeeds Above Single-line Equals Sign Symbol Meaning
The symbol ⪰ is Unicode character U+2AB0, named “SUCCEEDS ABOVE SINGLE-LINE EQUALS SIGN.” Visually, it places a “succeeds” relation above a single horizontal equals line, signaling a specialized comparison-style operator. In practice, it’s used in mathematical or formal text where the exact glyph matters—such as logic, order relations, or documents that mix multiple comparison symbols. Because it’s a distinct Unicode character (not the same as the more common greater-than or “greater than or equal to”), it’s best used when your notation specifically calls for U+2AB0.
Common uses
- •Writing formal math notes that require a specific “succeeds above” relation glyph
- •Typesetting ordering or comparison relations in documents and reports
- •Using the symbol in lecture slides or textbooks to match a particular notation set
- •Embedding the character in LaTeX-like plain text workflows where Unicode operators are used
- •Designing mathematical UI elements or diagram labels that need this exact character
