Perhaps you want &part;

Search the Web for /HTML entities/. See, among others, Wikipedia's
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_XML_and_HTML_character_entity_references
and the W3C's own info for HTML 4.0 at
http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-html40-970708/sgml/entities.html .

Read also Jukka Korpela's voluminous work at
http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/chars.html (more useful than you might
think; skim, bookmark, revisit). You seem like a guy who'd want
http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/chars.html#math on that same page.
