SUMMARY

The discussion centers on identifying the appropriate symbol for representing a vector of observations without implying multiplication or summation, specifically in the context of expressing inequalities among means for genotypes. The user seeks clarification on whether the symbol Pi (π) is suitable for this purpose. The conversation emphasizes the need to denote that one vector of means does not equal another, illustrated through the notation of means for different genotypes such as μAa and μAA.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of vector notation in statistics
  • Familiarity with LaTeX typesetting for mathematical expressions
  • Basic knowledge of genetic notation and genotype representation
  • Concept of inequalities in statistical means
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the use of the Pi (π) symbol in statistical contexts
  • Learn how to properly format mathematical expressions using LaTeX
  • Explore the implications of vector inequalities in statistical analysis
  • Study the representation of genotypes and their means in genetics
USEFUL FOR

Statisticians, geneticists, and researchers involved in data analysis who require clarity in representing vectors of observations and inequalities in their work.

Hi. I'm sorry to bother you, but I was trying to find the symbol used for a vector of observations that doesn't implicitly infre multiplication or summation. I'm trying to express an inequality at the simple and general levels so that

\muAa \ne \muAA, \muaa

The idea is that this inequality should apply to means for factors (genotypes) at a single effect (a gene in this case), and more generally to the system of all means for all factors at all effects. Is that Pi that I should be using? I can't remember and can't find it.

I don't quite understand you. Are you simply trying to say that one vector of observations does not equal another?
In that case, it would be $$(\mu_{Aa_1},\mu_{Aa_2},\mu_{Aa_3}...) \neq (\mu_{AA_1}...) \neq ...$$
Can you elaborate a little more on what you need?
Also, to type $\LaTeX$, use \$ and \$$ symbols or $$[\MATH] tags.
