U+22C2 "⋂" N-Ary Intersection Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⋂
U+22C2 "⋂" N-Ary Intersection is a mathematical symbol used primarily in set theory to denote the operation of intersection applied to a collection of sets or logical predicates, resulting in the set of elements common to all of them. It differs from the binary intersection operator (∩) in that it represents a generalized, or "big," intersection, often written with an index to specify a family of sets. Visually, it appears as a larger, more emphasized version of the standard intersection sign, and it is encoded in the Unicode block for Mathematical Operators. This character is commonly employed in advanced mathematics, computer science, and related fields to express operations over an arbitrary number of sets or sequences.
