Description
For mathematical texts (mainly in theorem provers) the following characters would be desirable:
- Uppercase and lowercase Greek letters including several letter variants (\varbeta, \varepsilon, \vartheta, \varkappa, \varpi, \varrho, \varsigma, \varphi, and inverted delda and omega): Α α, Β β/ϐ, Γ γ, Δ δ, Ε ε/ϵ, Ζ ζ, Η η, Θ θ/ϑ, Ι ι, Κ κ/ϰ, Λ λ, Μ μ, Ν ν, Ξ ξ, Ο ο, Π π/ϖ, Ρ ρ/ϱ, Σ σ/ς, Τ τ, Υ υ, Φ φ/ϕ, Χ χ, Ψ ψ, and Ω ω, and ∇, ℧.
- Quantifiers, large sum and large product characters: ∀, ∃, ∄, optionally also ∏, ∐, ∑, ⋂, ⋃.
- Brackets: ‹›, ⌈⌉, ⌊⌋, ⁽⁾, ₍₎,〈〉, optionally also ⁅⁆, ❬❭, ❲❳, ⟦⟧, ⧘⧙.
- Logical symbols: ⊥, ¬, ∧, ∨, ⊢, ⊣, ⅋, ⊸, optionally also ⊤, ⊨, ⊼, ⊻, ⫤.
- Basic operators: ⋅, ×, ∘, ∗, ⋆, ⊗, ⊕, optionally also ⋉, ⋊, ⊙, ⊖, ⊛, ⊚.
- Letterlikes: ∅, ∂, ∞, optionally also: 𝔹, ℂ, 𝔻, 𝔼, 𝔽, ℍ, ℕ, ℙ, ℚ, ℝ, and ℤ; ℑ, ℜ, ℵ, ℶ, ℘, ℬ.
- Modals: ◊, □, ♦, ʃ, ♯, ♭, ♮, optionally also ⬖, ⬗, ■, ◯, ⬤.
- Relations: ≠, ≟, ≐, ≅, ≈, ≡, ∈, optionally also ⥬, ⋈, ≺, ≼, ≻, ≽, ⊂, ⊃, ⊏, ⊐, ⊲, ⊳, ⩽, ⩾, ⩻.
- Optionally, a great variety of arrows: ordinary, double-stroke, dotted, squiggle, with hook, with double arrowhead, harpoons, from bar, all of them combined with not, tilde, dot above, vertical stroke or double vertical stroke. Examples: ⇏, ⇸, ↠̃, ↦, ⇀̇.
Rarely, combining diacritics for latin and greek letters are also used, namely dot, right arrow, right harpoon, tilde, overline and underline: vector v⃑ or or v⃗., and its derivative v⃗̇.

- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the requested Unicode character groups and the font's current glyph coverage, then define a feasible scope; done means the agreed mathematical characters are added and rendered correctly.
