U+2AB3 "⪳" Precedes Above Equals Sign Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⪳
U+2AB3 "⪳" Precedes Above Equals Sign is a mathematical relational symbol used to denote that one element comes before another but with an additional condition of equality or ordering above a standard equals sign. It belongs to the Supplemental Arrows and Mathematical Operators block and is typically employed in advanced algebra and set theory to express a precise hierarchical or sequential relationship where the precedence relation holds above a simultaneous equality. Visually, it combines a curved precedes symbol placed directly above a single equals sign, making it distinct from similar operators like "precedes or equal to."
