U+29FD "" Right-Pointing Curved Angle Bracket Unicode Character

Unicode Version 18.0

Source: Noto Sans Math Source: Browser Default

U+29FD "" Right-Pointing Curved Angle Bracket is a typographic symbol that resembles a standard angle bracket but with a subtle inward curve along its longer side. It is part of the Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-B block, where it is primarily used in advanced mathematical notation, logic, and formal language theory, often to denote a specific relational operation, a specialized grouping delimiter, or a directional indicator in algebraic syntax. Its left-pointing counterpart, U+29FC, exists as a matching pair, and together they function similarly to greater-than or less-than signs but with a distinct visual style that avoids confusion with ordinary inequality symbols. This character is less common in everyday text but appears in certain scientific publications and computing contexts where precise, domain-specific notation is required.
