Introducing LaTeX Math Typesetting

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The Physics Forums has integrated LaTeX mathematical typesetting into its platform, allowing users to create professional-grade mathematical expressions. Users can include LaTeX graphics in posts using the [tex] and [itex] tags for display and inline formats, respectively. A PDF guide detailing essential LaTeX commands and symbols is available, along with additional resources for the amsmath package. This feature enhances the forum's capability for mathematical discussions and presentations.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with LaTeX syntax and commands
  • Understanding of mathematical notation and typesetting
  • Basic knowledge of using forums and posting content online
  • Access to LaTeX resources and documentation
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the PDF guide on LaTeX commands provided by Physics Forums
  • Learn about the amsmath package and its functionalities
  • Practice creating LaTeX graphics using the [tex] and [itex] tags
  • Investigate additional LaTeX resources for advanced typesetting techniques
USEFUL FOR

Mathematicians, educators, students, and anyone involved in scientific communication who seeks to enhance their ability to present mathematical content effectively on online platforms.

Emc2brain,

You still have a space in your trial 2.

That would be great if we could draw Feynman graphs ! Is it too difficult to handle ?

james11,

Use \pi to represent \pi, rather than using "pie."

Testing...

\Vec{v}(x,y,z)=\frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}(x\Vec{i}+y\Vec{j}+z\Vec{k})

\frac{\partial v_x}{\partial x} =-\frac{2x^2}{(x^2+y^2+z^2)^2}+\frac{1}{x^2+y^2+z^2}= \frac{-2x^2}{r^4} + \frac{1}{r^2}


In the same way,

\frac{\partial v_y}{\partial y} =-\frac{2y^2}{r^4}+\frac{1}{r^2}

and

\frac{\partial v_z}{\partial z} =-\frac{2z^2}{r^4}+\frac{1}{r^2}

The divergence is

\mbox{Div}(\Vec{v})=\frac{\partial v_x}{\partial x} +\frac{\partial v_y}{\partial y} +\frac{\partial v_z}{\partial z}=

=\frac{-2x^2-2y^2-2z^2}{r^4}+\frac{3}{r^2}=\frac{-2r^2}{r^4}+\frac{3}{r^2}=\frac{1}{r^2}


It is the function
\Vec{v}(\Vec{r}) = \frac{\Vec{r}}{r^3}
whose divergence is zero everywhere except at the origin.
