Titles composed entirely of math symbols

I apologize for burdening MO with such a vapid, nonresearch question, but I have been curious ever since Suvrit's popular October 2010 Most memorable titles MO question if there were any "$E=mc^2$-titles," as I think of them—how Einstein in retrospect might have entitled his 1905 paper (instead of "Zur Elektrodynamik bewegter Körper"!)—paper/book titles composed entirely of math symbols.

There are two close misses in the responses to that MO question: Connes et al.'s "Fun with $\mathbb{F}_{1}$", and Taubes's "${\rm GR}={\rm SW}$: Counting curves and connections." The only title entirely composed of math symbols with which I'm familiar is the delightful book A=B, by Marko Petkovsek, Herbert Wilf, and Doron Zeilberger. Can you identify others?

Please interpret this question in a weekend-recreational spirit! :-)
