⋗

greater-than with dot

Greater-than with dot

⋗ is a specialized mathematical comparison sign, and its exact relation depends on the notation defining it. It belongs in formal formulas, not as a decorated version of plain >.

What ⋗ means

It marks a specialized mathematical relation. A relation is a sign that connects two mathematical expressions. ⋗ belongs to formal notation, but the glyph does not define one universal inequality; the notation using it has to supply the rule.

Its documented history includes ISOAMSR (“Added Mathematical Symbols: Relations”), an ISO symbol set for mathematical relations. MathML, a markup language for mathematical expressions, listed ⋗ under ISOAMSR and gave gtdot and gtrdot as its names in the 2003 tables.

Formal and specialized; use it in notation that defines its relation.

Do not treat it as ordinary >; its mathematical relation needs a definition.

Don't confuse it with

Greater-Than Sign

Plain > has no dot and usually means the standard greater-than comparison; ⋗ is a separate relation whose meaning depends on its notation.

Questions people ask

Why does ⋗ show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
