But there are so many of them ... :-)

Mathematicians are e.g. also used to LaTeX terminology for
writing their papers; so it might be a better approach to 
define a set of functions, classes, methods etc. using names
from LaTeX (instead of trying to add 'real' new operators to
Python).

Moreover: observe, that e.g. oplus (+) has different meanings
(depending on what area of maths you are working in). The same
holds for almost all operators.
