About the superset of symbol

The character is read aloud as "superset of." In set theory, it indicates that one set contains every element of another set, with the larger set written on the left side of the symbol. It is the converse of the subset symbol.

Outside of pure mathematics, it appears in logic, computer science, and formal language theory to express containment or inclusion relationships between classes, types, or structures. The symbol is a standard operator in Unicode's Mathematical Operators block and is typed using LaTeX's \supset command in technical documents.
