For your particular question see: How to typeset the symbol "^" (caret/circumflex). On how to look up symbols generally, see How to look up a symbol. – Alan Munn Dec 11 '12 at 04:50

Try this: \^{}.
More symbols see in the pdf file symbols-a4.pdf.

There are only two options that come immediately to mind: \verb=^= and \^. The first will not work inside another command and the second is actually an accent so should be typeset as \^{} (if you only want the caret).
It might be useful to know how you intend to use the symbol. For example, if you want to use is as a binary operation in mathematics you could cobble together something like
\DeclareMathOperator\caret{\raisebox{1ex}{$\scriptstyle\wedge$}}
in your preamble.
