The LaTeX command for rightarrow (→) is \rightarrow.
\rightarrowWriting a paper? The table generator and the BibTeX cleaner are one click away, no account.
| Command | Package | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
\rightarrow recommended | none | Single right arrow. |
\to | none | Short name for the same arrow. |
\Rightarrow | none | Double arrow: implication. |
\longrightarrow | none | A longer single arrow. |
\xrightarrow{n \to \infty} | amsmath | Labelled arrow that stretches to fit. |
Write \rightarrow inside math mode, that is between $…$ for inline math or in a \[ … \] or equation block for display math. It is part of core LaTeX math, so no extra package is required.

Use \rightarrow in math mode; it needs no extra package. For example, $x_n \rightarrow 0$.
None: \rightarrow is built into LaTeX, so no extra package is required.
\Rightarrow (double) means implies; for a limit or a map use the single \rightarrow or \to.
