A pointed caret, denoting conjunction in formal logic.
Also known as: Wedge, Caret, Pointed arch
∧ is logical conjunction: the statement it joins is true only when both parts are. It is the sharp-cornered counterpart of the rounded intersection sign, and the resemblance is not accidental — conjunction and intersection are the same operation in different settings.
Is encoded as U+2227 LOGICAL AND in the Mathematical Operators block.

Denotes conjunction: the compound statement is true exactly when both of the statements it joins are true.

Mirrors the intersection sign deliberately — conjunction on statements and intersection on sets are the same operation viewed differently — with the logical form drawn sharp and the set form rounded.

Two straight strokes meeting at a sharp point above and diverging downward, like a capital V turned upside down.
Conjunction against disjunction, dual under negation.
The sharp-cornered logical form beside the rounded set-theoretic one.
