Equation array and two column layout

2008-11-25 Thread Julio Rojas
Dear all, I'm finishing a paper with the two columned article class. I
have a problem with some equation arrays that are two big for this
format. They span over the other column or over the margins, even with
an smaller font (\scriptstyle). What can I do to solve this problem?
Should I use an even smaller font (\scriptscriptstyle)? How can I
break the line in an equation array and put the right hand of the
array under the first part, but slightly to the right?

The kind of equation array I'm using is conditional:

d= a+b, if a1
 a-b, if a1
 0,if a=1

Hope you can help me.

Hello Julio,
i do not know if i've understood your question.
Anyway, probably you can be interested one of this...

First solution:
press CTRL+L entering in ERT mode and then:
\begin{eqnarray}
d = a + b, if a1 \nonumber \\
= a-b, if a1 \nonumber \\
=0, if a=1 \nonumber
\end{eqnarray}

Second solution (i think better for you):
press CTRL+L entering in ERT mode and then:
$$ d = \left\{
\begin{array}{rl}  a+b \mbox{ if a1} \\
a-b \mbox{ if a1} \\
0 \mbox{ if a=1} \\
\end{array}
\right. $$


I hope it'll be usefull for you.
Bye,
   Vittorio

Re: Equation array and two column layout

2008-11-25 Thread Julio Rojas
Thank you Vittorio. What I would like with this matrix is that the
right column can overfill the left one and viceversa. That way I can
have the long equations and the cases in two lines (eq. on the left
column, cases on the right column) every other line.

d= a+b+c+d+e+f+g
if a,b,c,d,e,f,g 1
 a-b-c-d-e-f-g
if a,b,c,d,e,f,g1

With this arrangement I can include the equations in just one column
of the two column paper. Is this something usual to do? What is the
regular way of handling the case of a series of long equations in
two columned papers?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Vittorio, but this solution is not the one I'm looking for. I
would like the right column to be right aligned and the left column to
be left aligned. When I do that with your solution (changing the rl
to lr) this turns our to be the original matrix I started with. As I
said, I need the right column to overfill the left one in order to
make the equation fit inside one column of the document.

Anyways, thank you very much.
