U+1D514 "𝔔" Mathematical Fraktur Capital Q Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𝔔

U+1D514 "uD835uDD14" Mathematical Fraktur Capital Q is a stylized letter Q that belongs to the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block, designed for use in mathematical notation and formal typography. It is distinct from the standard Latin capital Q and is rendered in a blackletter or Fraktur style, which has historical roots in medieval Germanic script and later found specialized application in mathematics, particularly in older works of set theory, abstract algebra, and logic. This character is a plain text variant, not an emoji, and is primarily used to denote specific mathematical objects, such as the set of rational numbers in some contexts, though the more common symbol for that purpose is the double-struck Q. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for precise, cross-platform representation of mathematical Fraktur letters without relying on font-specific formatting.
