Unicode Version 17.0
⪴
U+2AB4 "⪴" Succeeds Above Equals Sign is a mathematical relational symbol that combines a regular equals sign with a succeeding relation placed directly above it. It is used in advanced mathematical notation to denote that one value succeeds another while also implying equality or equivalence in a different context, often appearing in formal logic, set theory, or lattice theory where layered comparisons are needed. This character belongs to the Supplemental Mathematical Operators block and serves as a precise typographic tool for expressing partial ordering or hierarchical relationships without ambiguity.
