Could you try to get as many symbols in or like a website. It is really hard to find a good list of symbols.

Yeah the notations
 
at the beginning of every book, there is a list of notations used by the author.
In general there is no reason to have fixed notations, since anyone can introduce symbols for his own.
[itex]R[/itex] can stand for radius as well as ricci curvature as well as resistance in a circuit as an R-parity eigenvalue as blah blah... you have to follow the author and the context of his book.
