The Lyn is the mathematical symbol for one divided by zero.

The Lyn is a mathematical symbol for one divided by zero. Much like what the imaginary number “i” does for the root of negative numbers, the Lyn allows mathematicians to write an answer more specific than “undefined” in division by zero problems, or divide by zero in intermediate steps to problems.
52/0 = 52(Lyn)
y/0 = y(Lyn)
0*(Lyn) = 1
