It isn't! The greek letter phi (φ) can mean lots of things in mathematics, but not what you're thinking. The empty set already has a fitting name, which is "the empty set", nothing else. You can represent it unambiguously with a pair of curly brackets: {}.If you insist, though, there does exist a symbol to represent the empty set: Ø, based off of a letter in the Norwegian alphabet. Note the forward slash instead of the vertical bar. This symbol should never be confused with phi, which might have other uses in the same context.You probably meant to ask this: Why_is_an_empty_set_a_subset_of_every_set
