\22E5
The ⋥ (square original of or not equal to) symbol is a mathematical operator used primarily in set theory and abstract algebra. It represents a strict superset relationship, indicating that one set completely contains another but is not identical to it. While rarely seen outside academic papers and textbooks, it provides a precise shorthand for mathematicians defining exact structural boundaries.
