different norm symbols

Thanks a lot for spending time with this code. I still get errors with this order of packages, in particular, with the set of integers defined as

Code: Select all

\newcommand{\Z}{\mathbb{Z}}
This definition is fairly common I guess...

different norm symbols

Thank you both for the tips. I shall put an apology up: I was using the package nath , not mathabx as I mentioned before. I'm putting a bit of code below:


\usepackage[urw-garamond, greekuppercase=upright, greeklowercase=italicized, sfscaled=true, ttscaled=true]{mathdesign}
\usepackage{pbsi ...

different norm symbols

Hi!

Occasionally one needs multiple norm symbols in a math document. I was wondering about the correct way to define a norm of the type $||| v |||$ in addition to $\lVert v \rVert$ I've looked at the comprehensive symbol list, and there are pre-defined symbols for this in mathabx package (I think ...

Symbol at the end of a displayed equation

Hi!

I checked the earlier posts for the solution to my question, but it doesn't seem to be there; so here it is:

Suppose I have an equation
\[
E = m c^2
\]
and I want a $\Diamond$ (or any other for that matter,) symbol at the end of the displayed equation flushed right. My numbering scheme has ...

Bibliography: No number in reference and cite by author

While I agree with Thorsten, I suggest that you try the natbib package (add the following in the preamble):

\usepackage[round, sort&compress, authoryear]{natbib}

together with

\bibliographystyle{agsm}
\bibliography{file_of_references}

where you want your bibliography to appear. There's also ...

standard mathcal with mathdesign

Found two possible solutions after some experimentation:

1. Simply adding \usepackage[mathcal]{eucal} after loading mathdesign works pretty well if one is satisfied with somewhat nonstandard (euscript) mathcal.

2. Adding \DeclareSymbolFont{usualmathcal}{OMS}{cmsy}{m}{n}
\DeclareSymbolFontAlphabet ...

standard mathcal with mathdesign

Hi!

I've been trying to use standard mathcal letters with mathdesign-garamond. Mathdesign apparently overloads mathcal with a set of letters resembling the mathscr letters. I tried to do the following:

\usepackage[urw-garamond, greekuppercase=upright, greeklowercase=italicized, sfscaled=true ...

Re: Special nesting of \overbrace and \underbrace

I'm glad you found the answer. We should actually thank Juanjo for drawing my attention to that paper in an earlier post.
