@Equinox "Tie over infinity" isn't a definition, it's just a description of what the glyph looks like. In CFI parlance, what meaning does this symbol convey?__Gamren (talk) 11:37, 2 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Gamren: Ah, I misunderstood "tie over infinity" as having a mathematical meaning (like, you know, "operation A in group X is closed over the integers"). So: I dunno. Equinox 20:11, 4 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Equinox I mean, it's entirely possible that it does. Evidently someone at the Unicode consortium or whatever felt a need for this symbol. But if so, I don't know what it is.__Gamren (talk) 21:11, 4 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Gamren: You know they publish official lists of characters that include explanations of what each character means. (They aren't always easy to find and I think sometimes you have to pay to get them, but OTOH I remember sometimes being able to find this stuff in the depths of unicode.org.) You could have a dig.
