Resources
MathJax
Support for MathJax Version 3.0 is included in the template:
\[\displaylines{ \nabla \cdot E= \frac{\rho}{\epsilon_0} \\\ \nabla \cdot B=0 \\\ \nabla \times E= -\partial_tB \\\ \nabla \times B = \mu_0 \left(J + \varepsilon_0 \partial_t E \right) }\]The default delimiters of $$...$$
and \\[...\\]
are supported for displayed mathematics, while \\(...\\)
should be used for in-line mathematics (ex., \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\))
Note that since Academic Pages uses Markdown which cases some interference with MathJax and LaTeX for escaping characters and new lines, although some workarounds exist.
Markdown guide
Academic Pages uses kramdown for Markdown rendering, which has some differences from other Markdown implementations such as GitHub’s. In addition to this guide, please see the kramdown Syntax page for full documentation.
