unicode-math replaces \not by the number "6"
If a suitable unicode char exists for a combination \not
+ unicode symbol you can add the needed declarations and they will work like the combination of \not
+ command. But imho there is no \not\approxeq, so here one needs a fallback like a combination with a solidus. You get a 6 in this case as there seem to be a bug in unicode-math: it looses the definition of \not from unicode-math-tables. This seems to be a work around (but imho doesn't looks perfect).
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\setmathfont{Latin Modern Math}
\ExplSyntaxOn
\cs_gset:cpn { not≤ } { \nleq }
\cs_gset:cpn { not≲ } { \not\lesssim }
%Fallback bug correction:
\__um_sym:nnn {"00338}{\__um_oldnot: }{\mathaccent}
\ExplSyntaxOff
\begin{document}
With \LaTeX{} commands:
\begin{gather*}
A \not= B\\
A \not\le B\\
A \not\lesssim B\\
A \not\approxeq B
\end{gather*}
With Unicode characters:
\begin{gather*}
A \not= B\\
A \not≤ B\\
A \not≲ B\\
A \not≊ B
\end{gather*}
\end{document}
Edit
One get a better "fallback" \not if one uses the overlay
keyword. This works only with lualatex: As an example here for for your \approxeq:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
%\setmathfont{Cambria Math}
\newcommand\napproxeq{\Umathaccent overlay fixed 7\symoperators "00338 \approxeq}
\begin{document}
$A \napproxeq B $
$A \not\approxeq C $
\end{document}
I will add this to the issue tracker for unicode math.
Locally redefine \not
as a stack.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb}
\usepackage{unicode-math}
\usepackage{stackengine}
\AtBeginDocument{\renewcommand\not[1]{%
\mathrel{\ensurestackMath{\stackengine{0pt}{#1}{\mkern1mu/}{O}{c}{F}{T}{L}}}}%
}
\begin{document}
With \LaTeX{} commands:
\begin{gather*}
A \not= B\\
A \not\le B\\
A \not\lesssim B\\
A \not\approxeq B
\end{gather*}
With Unicode characters:
\begin{gather*}
A \not= B\\
A \not≤ B\\
A \not≲ B\\
A \not≊ B
\end{gather*}
\end{document}
For comparison, here is the original unrepaired code.
