[Tex/LaTex] Using a smaller subset symbol

Question

I was looking at a paper and noticed they were using a thin subset symbol, like this:

I can't seem to find a command for this (and the corresponding symbol for \subseteq) online anywhere. How would I use this symbol?

Answer 1

Solution 1:

This might be what you look for:

\documentclass{article}
\let\mysub=\subset
\usepackage{mathabx}


\begin{document}
The original: $\mysub$

mathabx: $\subset$
\end{document}  

Solution 2:

I searched the definition of \subset in the mathabx package, and another solution without using this package is here:

\documentclass{article}

\DeclareFontFamily{U}{matha}{\hyphenchar\font45}
\DeclareFontShape{U}{matha}{m}{n}{
    <5> <6> <7> <8> <9> <10> gen * matha
    <10.95> matha10 <12> <14.4> <17.28> <20.74> <24.88> matha12
}{}
\DeclareSymbolFont{matha}{U}{matha}{m}{n}
\DeclareFontSubstitution{U}{matha}{m}{n}
\DeclareMathSymbol{\mysubset}{3}{matha}{"80}

\begin{document}
The original: $\subset$

Own symbol: $\mysubset$
\end{document}
