\227F
The ≿ (Succeeds or Equivalent To) symbol is a mathematical operator primarily used in order theory and economics. It combines a curly "greater than" sign with a tilde to indicate a weak preference, meaning one element follows or is structurally equivalent to another. In decision theory, it frequently represents a scenario where a consumer finds one option at least as good as another.
