Capital letters in math mode in bibliography

Post by theodorekon »

Hi,
It has come to my attention that capital letters that appear in my bibliography file in math mode will appear as lower case letters in the pdf file. For example if I write $I=V/R$ in the title of a reference in the bibliography file then in the pdf it will appear as i=v/r. Does anybody have a solution for that?

Thanks in advance

As with any other part of the bibliography, you need to use additional braces to protect it from case changes, which some bibliography styles require:

Code: Select all

title = {{$I=V/R$}},
