Alas, the notebook (or more precisely the component jsmath/mathjax
which is the same used on e.g. mathscinet) isn't yet able to display
all latex construct, and in particular tikz pictures.
Instead, you can view it in an external pdf viewer:
sage: view(B, pdflatex=True, tightpage=True)
With this command, Sage produces the latex for the object B, creates a
latex file, compiles it, and opens it in a viewer. However, I am not
sure if opening an external viewer actually works when running inside
a virtual machine. Anyone experience with that?
Best,
Nicolas
