U+2241 "≁" Not Tilde Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
≁
U+2241 "≁" Not Tilde is a mathematical symbol used to denote that two elements are not similar to each other, serving as the negated counterpart of the tilde operator (∼). It visually consists of a tilde character with a forward slash drawn through its center, representing a logical or relational inequality in contexts such as geometry, equivalence relations, or algebraic notation. This symbol is part of the Mathematical Operators block and is frequently employed in formal proofs and textbooks to clearly indicate the absence of similarity, equivalence, or a proportional relationship between values or figures.
