None of these is an abbreviation.
Maybe not, but ABBR is the closest thing we've got in HTML. After
that, we're left with harsh language
(http://www.maxdesign.com.au/2006/02/03/harsh-language/).
Or maybe more precise use of Unicode, e.g.
U+0078 - LATIN SMALL LETTER X
U+00D7 - MULTIPLICATION SIGN
U+2179 - SMALL ROMAN NUMERAL TEN
U+2A2F - VECTOR OR CROSS PRODUCT
etc.
