I think it’s \lrcorner from amssymb

\documentclass[fleqn]{article}

\usepackage{amssymb}

\begin{document}
\[\oint v_\lrcorner \dots \]

\verb|\lrcorner| $\lrcorner$

\verb|\llcorner| $\llcorner$

\verb|\urcorner| $\urcorner$

\verb|\ulcorner| $\ulcorner$
\end{document}

result

I found it in the LaTeX symbol list, cf. How to look up a symbol or identify a math symbol or character?

  • Heh... Just figured it out from the big list now. :( – kan Apr 07 '12 at 22:57

The third and possibly the last edit:

The four AMS delimiters in the same order as they appear in the picture: \ulcorner;\urcorner;\llcornerand \lrcorner : enter image description here
