U+2A06 N-Ary Square Union Operator

U+2A06 was added in Unicode version 3.2 in 2002. It belongs to the block U+2A00 to U+2AFF Supplemental Mathematical Operators in the U+0000 to U+FFFF Basic Multilingual Plane.

This character is a Math Symbol and is commonly used, that is, in no specific script.

The glyph is not a composition. It has no designated width in East Asian texts. In bidirectional text it acts as Other Neutral. When changing direction it is not mirrored. The word that U+2A06 forms with similar adjacent characters prevents a line break inside it. The glyph can be confused with one other glyph.

The Wikipedia has the following information about this codepoint:

In mathematics, the disjoint union (or discriminated union) AB of the sets A and B is the set formed from the elements of A and B labelled (indexed) with the name of the set from which they come. So, an element belonging to both A and B appears twice in the disjoint union, with two different labels.

A disjoint union of an indexed family of sets (Ai:iI) is a set A, often denoted by iIAi, with an injection of each Ai into A, such that the images of these injections form a partition of A (that is, each element of A belongs to exactly one of these images). A disjoint union of a family of pairwise disjoint sets is their union.

In category theory, the disjoint union is the coproduct of the category of sets, and thus defined up to a bijection. In this context, the notation iIAi is often used.

The disjoint union of two sets A and B is written with infix notation as AB. Some authors use the alternative notation AB or AB (along with the corresponding iIAi or iIAi).

A standard way for building the disjoint union is to define A as the set of ordered pairs (x,i) such that xAi, and the injection AiA as x(x,i).
