Not in academic papers unfortunately... And while math symbols are somewhat standard across papers, every CS paper comes up with their own meanings for half the symbols they use. Sometimes they are nice enough to say "we use random squiggly arrow to mean x", but then you need to keep a table of symbols on the side to even read the paper. Other times they just reuse "common" symbols and expect you to know, even though that symbol has been used for more than one purpose over time. It's all very tiresome.
