nearrow
Represents a diagonal arrow pointing to the upper-right, commonly used in mathematical diagrams and commutative diagrams.
Overview
Serves as a directional indicator in mathematical notation, particularly useful in advanced algebra, category theory, and diagram construction.
- Essential for illustrating mappings, transformations, and relationships between mathematical objects.
- Often appears in commutative diagrams to show morphisms between objects.
- Frequently used alongside other directional arrows to create comprehensive mathematical diagrams.
- Valuable in theoretical computer science and abstract algebra for depicting hierarchical relationships or transitions.
Examples
Showing the direction of a function's growth in a limit calculation.
\lim_{x \to \infty} f(x) \nearrow LIndicating increasing trend in phase space dynamics.
x(t) \nearrow \text{ as } t \to \inftyRepresenting upward movement in a game theory payoff matrix.
P(a,b) \nearrow P(a',b')
