  1. Difference between $⊂$ and $⊆$? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Oct 3, 2018 · 50 If the book distinguishes between $\subset$ and $\subseteq$, then most likely the former symbol denotes proper inclusion, so $\ {0\}\subset\ {0\}$ is false. The latter symbol instead will …

  3. What is the meaning of ⊊? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Dec 22, 2020 · This has caused the symbol " ⊂ ⊂ " to become ambiguous, and authors tend to want to avoid it. To describe the relation "proper subset", they instead use the symbol " ⊊ ⊊ ", which is less …

  4. elementary set theory - The proper symbol to denote proper subset ...

    Oct 25, 2020 · Other authors prefer to use the symbols ⊂ and ⊃ to indicate proper (also called strict) subset and proper superset respectively; that is, with the same meaning and instead of the symbols, …

  5. complex analysis - What does the symbol $\subset\subset$ mean ...

    In some texts (mainly complex analysis or harmonic analysis) I sometimes see the following double subset symbol $\\subset\\subset$ for inclusion relation of two regions, e.g., $\\Omega$ and …

  6. How to get a double line subset symbol, (but not \Subset)?

    The symbol I'm looking for appears in maths when the closure of an open set is contained in a bigger set; it's like two \subset, but doesn't look like \Subset. It's similar to \ll.

  7. Using a smaller subset symbol? - TeX - LaTeX Stack Exchange

    Jan 17, 2018 · I was looking at a paper and noticed they were using a thin subset symbol, like this: I can't seem to find a command for this (and the corresponding symbol for \\subseteq) online …

  8. elementary set theory - What does the subset with slash symbol mean ...

    Quite simply, ⊈ ⊈ means "not subset of." Hence, A⊈ B A ⊈ B means that A A is not a subset of B B. All the more to make this clear, that symbol is easily typeset with \not\subseteq.

  9. What the symbol $\\subseteq$ represents generally?

    Apr 15, 2017 · I'm a pedant and prefer to use ⊂ ⊂ for proper subset, whereas ⊊ ⊊ is convention for proper subsets. I disagree that ⊆ ⊆ is used to represent improper subsets since we already have a …

  10. Use of the $\\subset$ and $\\subseteq$ symbols in the definition of a ...

    Jun 3, 2020 · But, if we take that definition of the symbol ⊆ ⊆, then the power set will only contain the set that is equal to the given set i.e. in that case, P(A) = A P (A) = A. So, that means that the symbol ⊆ ⊆ …
