[Math] Standard notation/symbol for an embedding function

dg.differential-geometrynotation

Hello everyone,

Suppose that I am defining a function which embeds a surface (manifold) in $\mathbb{R}^3$.

Is there a standard symbol or letter that is used for this function?

Additionally, is there any other classical or standard notation (such as the hooked arrow for inclusion maps) of which I ought to be aware?

Regards,

Christopher

I usually use $\iota$ (\iota) for all kinds of embeddings.
