There's always a lowercase "v". But seriously, aside from Unicode, all I can find would be &darr, which looks like ↓.

Answer 3

You might be able to use the black triangles, Unicode values U+25b2 and U+25bc. Or the arrows, U+2191 and U+2193.

c# code

int i = 0;
char c = '↑';
i = (int)c;
Console.WriteLine(i); // prints 8593

int j = 0;
char d = '↓';
j = (int)d;
Console.WriteLine(j); // prints 8595

The ^ (Caret - or Ascii Circumflex), produced by pressing shift + 6, does not appear to have an Ascii opposite, namely an Ascii Inverted Circumflex.

But for your alternative character pairing that also have keyboard combinations, you could use:

ˆ (Circumflex) shift + alt + i and
ˇ (Caron) shift + alt + t
