   $\verb|\diamond^n_{i=0}|\longrightarrow\diamond^n_{i=o}$\\[3pt]
   $\verb|\diamondsuit^n_{i=0}|\longrightarrow\diamondsuit^n_{i=o}$\\[3pt]

\begin{itemize}[label=$\diamond$]
    \item this is first item
    \item this is second item
    \item this is third item
\end{itemize}
\textbf{This is another list:}
\begin{itemize}[label=$\blacklozenge$]
    \item this is first item
    \item this is second item
    \item this is third item
\end{itemize}
\end{document}
