 The thing is how can I overstrike this arrow over one of the terms to
 signal a simplification.

 Oh, I understand what you mean now :)

 The cancel package provides this
 (http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/cancel/cancel.pdf).

 Just \usepackage{cancel} in the preamble.

 You can insert it in math mode, but you have to be careful that in the
 source view, you have real braces ({}) around the argument. To do this
 follow these step (example: you want to cancel ab in ab+cd):

 CTRL-M (enter Math Mode)
 \cancel (will appear in red)
 CTRL-L (enter raw LaTeX)
 type the { symbol on your keyboard (will insert a raw { } argument box
 to \cancel)
 fill the box with terms to cancel, here ab
 Exit the brace box and continue the equation: +cd

 I made a similar example in the screenshot attached. Hope this helps.

 I got the hint from the following:

Simplification symbols

2010-08-12 Thread Julio Rojas 
Dear all, I would like to use a simplification symbol (close to
nearrow) for some algebraic operation I'm doing. I remember there was
a package, but I don't remember which one it was. Thanks in advance.

You can draw it on the Detexify web site (
http://detexify.kirelabs.org/classify.html) and you will get your answer :)
Also works for any other symbol that LaTeX supports. Nifty stuff.
