The descending wedge symbol ∨ may represent:
- Logical disjunction in propositional logic
- Join in lattice theory
- The wedge sum in topology
- The V sign, a symbol representing peace among other things
The vertically reflected symbol, ∧, is a wedge, and often denotes related or dual operators.
The ∨ symbol was introduced by Russell and Whitehead in Principia Mathematica, where they called it the Logical Sum or Disjunctive Function.[1]
In Unicode the symbol is encoded U+2228 ∨ LOGICAL OR (∨, ∨). In TeX, it is \vee
or \lor
.
One motivation and the most probable explanation for the choice of the symbol ∨ is the latin word "vel" meaning "or" in the inclusive sense. Several authors use "vel" as name of the "or" function.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
