The forty symbols that cover most everyday mathematics, on one page. Each has its own entry with variants, packages and examples; this is the quick-copy version.
All ways to write it
| Command | Use | Package | Copy |
|---|---|---|---|
\pm \times \cdot \div | ± × · ÷ | none | |
\leq \geq \neq \approx \equiv | ≤ ≥ ≠ ≈ ≡ | none | |
\in \notin \subset \cup \cap \emptyset | ∈ ∉ ⊂ ∪ ∩ ∅ | none | |
\forall \exists \neg \land \lor | ∀ ∃ ¬ ∧ ∨ | none | |
\to \Rightarrow \iff \mapsto | → ⇒ ⟺ ↦ | none | |
\sum \prod \int \partial \nabla \infty | ∑ ∏ ∫ ∂ ∇ ∞ | none | |
\alpha \beta \gamma \delta \theta \lambda \pi \sigma \omega | α β γ δ θ λ π σ ω | none | |
\sqrt{x} \frac{a}{b} x^{2} x_{i} | root, fraction, superscript, subscript | none | |
\mathbb{R} \mathcal{L} \mathbf{v} \hat{x} \bar{x} \vec{v} | fonts and accents | none |
Example
\forall \varepsilon > 0\; \exists N : n \geq N \implies |a_n - L| < \varepsilonA definition that uses a dozen of them at once.
Questions
Where is the complete list?
The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List (CTAN, 'symbols-a4') has over 14,000 entries. This page is the working subset.
Which of these work in Confluence?
Everything on this page renders in KaTeX, which is what LaTeX Math for Confluence uses. Entries elsewhere on this site flag the few commands that need LaTeX-only packages.

Using cheat sheet in Confluence
Confluence Cloud has no built-in LaTeX. With LaTeX Math for Confluence you add a math macro to any page, type \pm \times \cdot \div and it renders inline or as a block, with a live preview while you edit. Every command on this page renders there without extra packages.
