My lecturer has used some notation that I've never seen before: it is a (matrix) product symbol with a left-to-right arrow over the top. Does anybody know what this means?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: It looks like this:

Matrix multiplication is not commutative, so (maybe) that symbol means that you are considering the product adding the next matrix to the right: $$ X_1 X_2 \cdots X_k. $$ Anyway, I am just guessing, I've never seen it before!
