U+1D6D6 "𝛖" Mathematical Bold Small Upsilon Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𝛖
U+1D6D6 "𝛖" Mathematical Bold Small Upsilon is a typographic symbol used primarily in mathematical and scientific notation to represent the Greek letter upsilon in a bold, upright font style, distinguishing it from both standard text and italic or regular-weight mathematical symbols. It belongs to the Unicode block Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols, which was designed to provide unambiguous representations of letters for use in equations, formal logic, and other technical contexts where specific typographic variations carry distinct meanings. As a bold small upsilon, it may appear in vector notation, as a variable in physics or engineering, or as part of a set of styled Greek letters for consistency in typesetting complex formulas.
