U+1D735 "𝜵" Mathematical Bold Italic Nabla Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
𝜵
U+1D735 "𝜵" Mathematical Bold Italic Nabla is a typographic variant of the nabla symbol (∇), designed for use in mathematical and scientific notation to represent the del or gradient operator, particularly in bold italic contexts such as vector calculus or tensor analysis. It is encoded in the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block, allowing it to be distinguished from the basic nabla symbol for precise formatting in digital texts. This character resembles an inverted capital Greek letter delta and is commonly employed to denote partial derivatives, divergence, or curl in fields like physics and engineering.
