You are operating in in-line math mode hence the limits for Limes are set to this position (for good reason). You can force the desired output by switching to display style.

Code: Select all

$\displaystyle\lim_{t\to\infty}=a$
Note that this will disturb interline spacing. But this effect also can be avoided with the help of amsmath.

Code: Select all

$\displaystyle\smash{\lim_{t\to\infty}}=a$
Now the interline spacing is OK but their could occur overlapping at critical positions.


Best regards

Thank you very much for your quick reply!

Another practical question that for sure you're able to answer.... in the report i've several equations numbered as arabic numer (1), (2) ecc... if I copy and paste an equation (e.g eq (2)) latex correctly update the equation number to take into account all the equations in between (for example Eq (2) can become Eq (xx)). Is there a code to force latex to mantain the original number of the equation??

thank you!
