array $$$\begin{array}{|ccc|}a_1&a_2&a_3\\ b_1&b_2&b_3\\ c_1&c_2&c_3\end{array}$$$ is $$\begin{array}{|ccc|}a_1&a_2&a_3\\ b_1&b_2&b_3\\ c_1&c_2&c_3\end{array}$$ |
|
beta (lower case greek letter) $$$\beta$$$ gives $$\beta$$ |
|
big sum $$$\bigsum_{n+2}^x$$$ is $$\bigsum_{n+2}^x$$ |
|
braces - Syntax: \left{...\right}
- Ex.: $$$M=\left{a, b, c\right}$$$ gives
$$M=\left{a, b, c\right}$$ |
|
cdot (multiplication) $$$a\cdot~b$$$ gives $$a\cdot~b$$ |
|
chi (lower case greek letter) $$$\chi$$$ gives $$\chi$$ |
|
constants - Numbers in formulas are interpreted as constants and they are rendered in non-italic roman font face, which is a widely used convention.
- Following this convention, variables are shown in italic.
- Exp.: $$$f(x)=3a+x$$$ gives
$$f(x)=3a+x$$ |
|
contour integral - General syntax for symbols with a kind of lower and upper limits:
\symbolname_{<em>lowerexpression</em>}^{<em>upperexpression</em>} - In general, there are two ways how these lower and upper expressions can be placed: centered below and above the symbol or in a subscript / superscript manner. In the first case the symbol name is preceded by the word "big", in the second there is no prefix.
- Syntax for the contour integral symbol:
$$$\bigoint_{0}^{\infty}$$$ gives $$\bigoint_{0}^{\infty}$$ and $$$\oint_{0}^{\infty}$$$ gives $$\oint_{0}^{\infty}$$ $$$\LARGE\bigoint_{\small0}^{\small\infty}$$$ gives $$\LARGE\bigoint_{\small0}^{\small\infty}$$ and $$$\large\oint_{\small0}^{\small\infty}$$$ gives $$\large\oint_{\small0}^{\small\infty}$$ |
|
coproduct - General syntax for symbols with a kind of lower and upper limits:
\symbolname_{<em>lowerexpression</em>}^{<em>upperexpression</em>} - In general, there are two ways how these lower and upper expressions can be placed: centered below and above the symbol or in a subscript / superscript manner. In the first case the symbol name is preceded by the word "big", in the second there is no prefix.
- Note: mimeTeX seems currently only to support the \bigcoprod command.
- Syntax for coproduct symbol:
$$$\bigcoprod_{i=k}^{n}$$$ gives $$\bigcoprod_{i=k}^{n}$$ $$$\LARGE\bigcoprod_{\small{i=k}}^{\small~n}$$$ gives $$\LARGE\bigcoprod_{\small{i=k}}^{\small~n}$$ |

delimiters (overview) | Delimiters (parentheses, braces, brackets. ...) | | Command | Example | Result | \left(... \right) | $$$2\left(a+b\right)$$$ | $$2~\left(a+b\right)$$ | | \left[... \right] | $$$\left[a^2+b^2~\right]$$$ | $$\left[a^2+b^2~\right]$$ | | \left{... \right} | $$$\left{x^2, x^3, x^4,... \right}$$$ | $$\left{x^2, x^3, x^4,... \right}$$ | | \left\langle... \right\rangle | $$$\left\langle a,b~\right\rangle$$$ | $$\left\langle a,b~\right\rangle$$ | | \left| ... \right| | $$$\det\left|\array{a&b\\c&d}\right| $$$ | $$\det\left|\array{a&b\\c&d}\right| $$ | | \left\| ... \right\| | $$$\left\|f~\right\|$$$ | $$\left\|f~\right\|$$ | \left{ ... \right<strong>.</strong></p><p><font color="#ff0000"><em>(note the dot!)</em></font></p></td><td valign="top" width="33%"><p>$$$f(x)=\left{{x^2, \rm~if x>-1\atop~0, \rm~else}\right.$$$ (\rm switches to roman style) | $$f(x)=\left{{x^2, \rm~if x>-1\atop~0, \rm~else}\right.$$ | \left.{ ... \right\} (note the dot!) | $$$\left.{{\rm~term1\atop\rm~term2}\right}=y$$$ | $$\left.{{\rm~term1\atop \rm~term2}\right}=y$$ | | | |
|
Note: The delimiters are automatically sizes. |
