SUMMARY
This discussion focuses on formatting mathematical products in LaTeX to display larger products with subscript and superscript notations above and below the operator. The user seeks to achieve this using the \displaystyle command or the \dfrac command instead of \frac. Additionally, the discussion highlights the use of \prod\limits for placing limits above and below the operator while maintaining the text style. Reference to The TeXbook is provided for further reading on this topic.
