1 📘 👨‍💻 📐 LaTeX Templates for Use with Quarto

1.1 Introduction

Quarto allows the use of mathematical formulas with LaTeX inside .qmd files, both inline and in blocks.
This makes it possible to create scientific, technical, and educational documents with precise and elegant mathematical notation.

1.2 Inline Equations

Inline equations are written between $ and $:

Example:

Euler's identity is: $e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0$

Result:

Euler’s identity is: $e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0$

1.3 Block Equations

Block equations use $$ as delimiters and are centered:

$$
x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}
$$

Result:

\[ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \]

1.4 Systems of Equations

You can use \begin{align} or \begin{cases}:

$$
\begin{cases}
x + y = 2 \\
2x - y = 3
\end{cases}
$$

Result:

\[ \begin{cases} x + y = 2 \\ 2x - y = 3 \end{cases} \]

1.5 Matrices

$$
A = \begin{bmatrix}
1 & 2 \\
3 & 4
\end{bmatrix}
$$

Result:

\[ A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 \\ 3 & 4 \end{bmatrix} \]

1.6 Summations, Products, Integrals

$$
\sum_{i=1}^{n} i = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}
$$

$$
\prod_{k=1}^{n} k = n!
$$

$$
\int_0^\infty e^{-x} dx = 1
$$

Result:

\[ \sum_{i=1}^{n} i = \frac{n(n+1)}{2} \]

\[ \prod_{k=1}^{n} k = n! \]

\[ \int_0^\infty e^{-x} dx = 1 \]

1.7 Fractions, Powers, and Roots

$$
\frac{a + b}{c}, \quad x^2, \quad \sqrt{x}, \quad \sqrt[3]{x}
$$

Result:

\[ \frac{a + b}{c}, \quad x^2, \quad \sqrt{x}, \quad \sqrt[3]{x} \]

1.8 Logic and Sets

$$
A \cap B, \quad A \cup B, \quad A \subseteq B, \quad A \in B
$$

$$
\forall x \in \mathbb{R}, \quad \exists y > 0
$$

Result:

\[ A \cap B, \quad A \cup B, \quad A \subseteq B, \quad A \in B \]

\[ \forall x \in \mathbb{R}, \quad \exists y > 0 \]

1.9 Conclusion

LaTeX support in Quarto allows you to write mathematical expressions with the same power and precision as a scientific paper.
These templates serve as a foundation for producing technical and educational content with a high visual standard.
