Could you tell me how to write the following P in Latex?

enter image description here

It is not equal to \mathcal{P} in Latex.

This is a \mathcal{P}. Note that depending on the font used, \mathcal{P} looks different.

If for example you just open a new document on overleaf.com and you edit "\mathcal{P}" into the source code, you will get:

That looks exactly like the letter that you want.

An minimal example to get this letter is:

\documentclass{article}    
\begin{document}
$\mathcal{P}$
\end{document}

  • you don't need any of babel, fontspec and inputenc for this example – percusse Nov 02 '16 at 09:40
  • Thank you. Due to the package 'eucal', \mathcal{P} looks different. – Micheal C Nov 02 '16 at 09:47
  • @percusse Yes, you are right. Overleaf at first gave me an error when removing the lines, so I kept them in. But the error was gone when recompiling from scratch. – DCTLib Nov 02 '16 at 13:50

I think it is \mathcal{}

\begin{document}
$\mathcal{P}$  
\[\mathcal{P}\]
\end{document}

  • I correct your LaTeX syntax, however, what is difference between your and DCTLib answer? – Zarko Nov 02 '16 at 09:37
  • @Zarko.. I didn't noticed DCTLib answer when I posted my answer. Perhaps we posted it at the same time. Sorry about that. His answer look more proper though. – shahrina ismail Nov 02 '16 at 12:22
