About this character

U+1FB6 (ᾶ) is GREEK SMALL LETTER ALPHA WITH PERISPOMENI, a lowercase letter in the Greek Extended block. It belongs to the Greek script. It was added in Unicode 1.1 (1993).

It has no single-character uppercase form; uppercasing produces the sequence U+0391 Α + U+0342 ◌͂.

It is precomposed. Under NFD it decomposes into U+03B1 α + U+0342 ◌͂, and NFC recombines that sequence into this single codepoint, so both spellings are canonically equivalent and should compare equal after normalization. See the normalization guide.
