There are several symbols for universal set:
- bold capital U -- U
- italic capital U -- U
- double-struck capital U -- "𝕌" in html
- as above, but using capital E
- small greek letter xi -- "ξ" in html
The last two above (E and "ξ" in html ) are not currently in common use and yet they cannot be mistaken for the "set union" operator -- "∪" in html (aka "cup"). On the other hand, perhaps the "mistaken similarity" is intentional: the universal set being the union of all other sets.
