A pawn formation that resembles the Greek letter "λ". It commonly arises after the knight on f3 (or f6) is exchanged for the opponent's queen's bishop, resulting in doubled pawns. A well-known example occurs in the Trompowsky Attack, where Black aims for a kingside fianchetto. After Bxf6 and ...gxf6, the pawns on f6 and g7 form the characteristic λ-shaped pattern.

It's a funny example of how double pawns can occasionally be advantageous. You get the strong control over e5, an open e file, potential of f5, all without even having to open the g1 a7 diagonal to the king. The only main problem is that it weakens d4. I remember other shapes like a box of pawns which can also be pretty advantageous, it's all pretty counter intuitive since I generally think "doubled pawn = bad"
It’s true that a double pawn can be an advantage if used effectively. I hadn’t been able to articulate the strengths of this pawn structure as well as you have, so your comment was very helpful. Thank you.
