\centerdot

The \centerdot operator is used to represent multiplication or dot product in mathematical expressions. It is visually represented as a centered dot between two operands, indicating a multiplicative operation. This operator is commonly used in algebra and vector mathematics to denote the product of two numbers or vectors.

Examples

Represents the multiplication of a and b, resulting in c.

a \centerdot b = c

Indicates that the dot product of vectors \vec{u} and \vec{v} is zero, suggesting they are orthogonal.

\vec{u} \centerdot \vec{v} = 0

Shows a sequence of multiplicative operations resulting in 1.

x \centerdot y \centerdot z = 1
