The symbol is available in Unicode: U+29E2 Shuffle product

LuaTeX/XeTeX

  • Asana Math:

    \documentclass{article}  
\usepackage{unicode-math}   
\setmathfont{Asana-Math.otf}
\begin{document}
\[A \shuffle B\]
\end{document}

    Asana Math

  • XITS Math

    \setmathfont{xits-math.otf}

    XITS Math

  • Not available in

    • Latin Modern Math
    • TeX Gyre Math fonts

Metafont

  • Package shuffle:

    \documentclass{article}
\usepackage{shuffle}
\begin{document}
\[A \shuffle B\]
\end{document}

    shuffle

    Or with support of any sizes (especially < 5pt, see Shuffle symbol breaks footnotes?):

    \documentclass{article}

\DeclareSymbolFont{Shuffle}{U}{shuffle}{m}{n}
\DeclareFontFamily{U}{shuffle}{}
\DeclareFontShape{U}{shuffle}{m}{n}{%
  <-8>shuffle7%
  <8->shuffle10%
}{}
\DeclareMathSymbol\shuffle{\mathbin}{Shuffle}{"001}
\DeclareMathSymbol\cshuffle{\mathbin}{Shuffle}{"002}

\begin{document}
\[ A \shuffle B \]
\end{document}

Packages are not needed.

\documentclass{article}

\makeatletter
\providecommand*{\shuffle}{%
  \mathbin{\mathpalette\shuffle@{}}%
}
\newcommand*{\shuffle@}[2]{%
  % #1: math style
  % #2: unused
  \sbox0{$#1\vcenter{}$}%
  \kern .15\ht0 % side bearing
  \rlap{\vrule height .25\ht0 depth 0pt width 2.5\ht0}%
  \raise.1\ht0\hbox to 2.5\ht0{%
    \vrule height 1.75\ht0 depth -.1\ht0 width .17\ht0 %
    \hfill
    \vrule height 1.75\ht0 depth -.1\ht0 width .17\ht0 %
    \hfill
    \vrule height 1.75\ht0 depth -.1\ht0 width .17\ht0 %
  }%
  \kern .15\ht0 % side bearing
}
\makeatother

\begin{document}
\[
  A \shuffle B_{A \shuffle B_{A \shuffle B}}
\]
\end{document}

    You beat Detexify on that one. It could not recognize it. – Taladris Jun 10 '14 at 10:21

This combines two \sqcups and uses \mathchoice so that it sets in any mathstyle.

\documentclass{article}
\def\dsqcup{\sqcup\mathchoice{\mkern-7mu}{\mkern-7mu}{\mkern-3.2mu}{\mkern-3.8mu}\sqcup}
\begin{document}
$A \dsqcup B$

$\scriptstyle A \dsqcup B$

$\scriptscriptstyle A \dsqcup B$
\end{document}

Here is an alternative l3draw solution:

enter image description here

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{l3draw,xparse}
\ExplSyntaxOn
%---------------------------------------------------------
\fp_new:N \l__expl_shuffle_fp

\cs_new_protected:Nn \expl_shuffle:
 {
  \draw_begin:
  \draw_linewidth:n { \l__expl_shuffle_fp }
  \draw_cap_round:
  \draw_join_round:
  \draw_path_moveto:n { 0.0ex , 1.0ex }
  \draw_path_lineto:n { 0.0ex , 0.0ex }
  \draw_path_lineto:n { 1.75ex , 0.0ex }
  \draw_path_lineto:n { 1.75ex , 1.0ex }
  \draw_path_use_clear:n { stroke }
  \draw_path_moveto:n { 0.875ex , 0.0ex }
  \draw_path_lineto:n { 0.875ex , 1.0ex }
  \draw_path_use_clear:n { stroke }
  \draw_end:
 }
\NewDocumentCommand{\explshuffle}{}
 {
  \mathrel
   {
    \fp_set:Nn \l__expl_shuffle_fp { 0.08ex }
    \text{$\mspace{1mu}$ \expl_shuffle: $\mspace{1mu}$}
   }
 }
%---------------------------------------------------------
\ExplSyntaxOff


\begin{document}
[
  A \explshuffle B_{A \explshuffle B_{A \explshuffle B}}
]
\end{document}

I have only rotate and reflect the symbol \exists...creating a newcommand.

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage{amssymb,amsmath}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\newcommand{\rexists}{\raisebox{\depth}{\rotatebox{270}{$\exists$}}}

\begin{document}
$A \mathrel{\rexists}B$


\end{document}
