updownarrow
Displays a vertical double-headed arrow indicating bidirectional movement or relationships.
Overview
Commonly employed in mathematics and technical diagrams to show two-way relationships, vertical equilibrium, or reversible processes.
- Frequently used in chemistry to indicate reversible reactions or equilibrium states
- Appears in mathematical notation to represent bijective mappings or one-to-one correspondences
- Useful in diagrams and flowcharts to show bidirectional flows or dependencies
- Often found in physics to illustrate vertical forces or oscillatory motion
Examples
Indicating bidirectional vertical movement in a physical system.
y(t) \updownarrow 2\text{ cm}Showing oscillating behavior in a mathematical expression.
f(x) \updownarrow \text{ as } x \to \inftyRepresenting a two-way vertical correspondence between sets.
