Typographical conventions in mathematical formulae provide uniformity across mathematical texts and help the readers of those texts to grasp new concepts quickly. Mathematical notation includes letters from various alphabets, as well as special mathematical symbols. Letters in various fonts often have specific, fixed meanings in particular areas of mathematics. A mathematical article or a theorem typically starts from the definitions of the introduced symbols, such as: "Let G = (V, E) be a graph with the vertex set V and edge set E...". Theoretically it is admissible to write "Let X = (a, q) be a graph with the vertex set a and edge set q..."; however, this would decrease readability, since the reader has to consciously memorize these unusual notations in a limited context.

  • Als Formelsatz bezeichnet man in der Typografie den Satz vor allem mathematischer, aber auch chemischer Formeln, für den Druck oder die Anzeige am Bildschirm. Das Setzen von Formeln ist schwieriger als von reinem Text, da hierbei Zeichen nicht nur nebeneinander, sondern auch übereinander (z. B. bei Brüchen) gesetzt werden müssen. Manche Zeichen müssen sich über nachfolgende Zeichen erstrecken (z. B. Wurzelzeichen); ferner kann ihre Größe abhängig sein von nachfolgenden Zeichen (z. B. Klammern) oder von ihrer Funktion (Indizes und Exponenten). Eine weitere Schwierigkeit liegt in der Vielfalt der mathematischen Zeichen. Ähnliche Zeichen müssen deutlich unterscheidbar sein. (de)

Usage of subscripts and superscripts is also an important convention. In the early days of computers with limited graphical capabilities for text, subscripts and superscripts were represented with the help of additional notation. In particular, n2 could be written as n^2 or n**2 (the latter borrowed from FORTRAN) and n2 could be written as n_2. (en)
