Hi, I just want to know if there is a symbol that join \ll and = like \leq joins < and =. If not, it's possible to "make" that symbol (that has << in upper and - in bottom; like \leq but with two <<)? Thanks in advance, Xan. PS: In The not so short introduction to latex there is no such symbol. Maybe in ConTeXt....

No doubt you _could_ define such a symbol, but what is the meaning of it? The statement “a ≪ b” means a is _much_ less than b; i.e., not anywhere near b, let alone _equal_ to b. —Joel Salomon

B.T.W., I don’t see this in the Comprehensive LᴬTᴇX Symbol List, but there is Unicode character U+2AA3 [⪣] “Double Nested Less-Than with Underbar”. —Joel Salomon

Joel, Thanks a lot. I searched a symbol for "f \symbol g iff for large x f(x) < g(x)". What's the most adequate symbol here? Thanks, Please, CCme.
