LaTeX Testing Latex: Title Optimization Test

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the use of LaTeX in titles, highlighting that while it has been possible to insert LaTeX for some time, it can lead to layout issues and negatively impact how Google indexes pages. Concerns are raised about the potential for broken layouts and the complexity of changing existing titles. Although users do not frequently attempt to use LaTeX in this way, the consensus is that it should not be encouraged, and there is a suggestion to remove it wherever it appears to maintain better indexing and layout integrity.

Can't say if it is OK or not, it is just the way it is.

We've been able to insert LaTeX into titles for quite a while, in the old system. There have been a couple that I changed from tex to itex so they didn't span multiple lines.
 
Shouldn't be encouraged because it can break layouts and google will index the page as "Spectrum of #(x_1,x_2,x_3,...)\mapsto(0,x_1,2^{-1}x_2,...)#"
 
We can simply remove it everywhere we see it. Users rarely try that and it is probably hard to change, so it does not look like an urgent issue.
