Select what you want to search and copy it to the search clipboard (M-W s with
emacs keybindings), then select what you want as a replacement and copy it to
the replace clipboard (M-W r) and then execute search and replace _when inside
mathematics_, when the dialog appears (or the question in the minibuffer) just
press return twice, and voila.

About the other question, if the symbol you want is "vee" the way to know its
shortcut is to go to Help>Search>source code, type vee, and in the first hit
you
get the keybindings file math-kbd.scm

There you get it: "S-F5 v" (S-F5 is the keybinding for math:symbol.
