The "Does Not Succeed" symbol (⊁) is a mathematical operator featuring a curly greater-than sign crossed out with a diagonal slash. In order theory and economics, it indicates that one element does not succeed—or is not strictly preferred to—another. While rarely used in everyday typing, it is a vital notation for academic texts discussing formal logic, voting theory, and preference relations.
