Powerset in LaTeX

How to type Powerset

Write \mathcal{P} inside math mode, that is between $โ€ฆ$ for inline math or in a \[ โ€ฆ \] or equation block for display math. It is part of core LaTeX math, so no extra package is required.

Set notation lives in math mode: write $\mathcal{P}$, even in the middle of a sentence. With unicode-math under XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX, typing ๐’ซ in a formula gives the same symbol.

Example
$A \mathcal{P} B$APBA \mathcal{P} BAPB
