Unicode Version 17.0

𝗁

U+1D5C1 "𝗁" Mathematical Sans-Serif Small H is a typographic glyph belonging to the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block, designed for use in scientific and mathematical notation where a sans-serif italic style is required. It represents a lowercase letter h in a sans-serif typeface with an upright or slightly slanted form, distinct from both standard serif math italic and plain text letters. This character is primarily intended for equations, formulas, and technical writing to ensure clear differentiation between variables and ordinary text, particularly in fields like mathematics, physics, and computer science. It is encoded in Unicode to support modern mathematical typesetting systems reliant on plain text rather than visual formatting.
