I assumed Hans meant MathML. :)
\usemodule[mathml]
The basic math capabilities within ConTeXt do seem poorly documented,
mostly because they point to different sources, often in books. However,
ConTeXt does use Plain TeX as its model for mathematics.
The basics in ConTeXt are roughly equivalent to those described in:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Formula
(I don't know if it will specifically help you, but I note there's a
zh version of that page)
but it takes some practice to spot the things that don't work directly
in ConTeXt. Some differences are unimplemented features, some are
differing conventions, some are because LaTeX thought they would be
useful, and ConTeXt hasn't (yet).
Some differences from the examples on that page that I notice immediately:
Math is best delimited inline with \formula{ ... }, not $ ... $
Display math is best delimited with \startformula ... \stopformula , not
$$ ... $$
\operatorname = \mfunction
The double-, triple-, and quadruple-integrals (\nt) are undefined in
basic ConTeXt's math.
I must say thank you very very much!
In fact I've been looking for \iint in ConTeXt in the last two days -_-
so i'll try to use \int\!\!\!\int instead of looking for a ConTeXt
implementation :)
I met another problem today. Since there are not as many arrows in ConTeXt as
there
in AMS-LaTeX,I don't konw how to type the formula in the attached picture which
will
be referred in my presentation next Monday.
The \begin{case} environment needs to be simplified into the Plain
\cases{} command.
The AMSmath/LaTeX-like:
$$ \begin{bmatrix} p q \\
r s \end{bmatrix} $$
...can be interpreted as...
\startformula
\left[ \matrix{ p q \cr
r s } \right]
\stopformula
This might not be the best answer to the original poster, but I do hope
it provides a bit of a guide to the general ConTeXt newcomer.

Hello, Xiao.
I'm glad I could help: I'm learning these advanced requirements as I go
along. My personal mathematics needs are much more modest.
I wouldn't give up on ConTeXt just yet. Try:
\loadmapfile[original-ams-base]
\starttext
\showmathcharacters
Note the \formula{\rightleftharpoons} and
\formula{\upharpoonleft\!\downharpoonright}.
\stoptext
Do you know how you would code that cycle in (AMS)LaTeX?
Hi,
I can code the cycle in ConTeXt,but it's too ugly and I will try to improve it.
here is my code:
\starttext
\placeformula
\startformula
\matrix{A+B{\Delta G_1\atop\rightleftharpoons}AB\cr
\Delta G_3\!\!\upharpoonleft\!\downharpoonright
\upharpoonleft\!\downharpoonright\!\!\Delta G_4\cr
A'+B{\rightleftharpoons\atop\Delta G_2}A'B\cr}
\stopformula
\stoptext
There is a similar example in The TeXbook(example 18.46).
You can try the follow code:
$$\def\normalbaselines{\baselineskip20pt
\lineskip3pt \lineskiplimit3pt }
\def\mapright#1{\smash{
\mathop{\longrightarrow}\limits^{#1}}}
\def\mapdown#1{\Big\downarrow
\rlap{$\vcenter{\hbox{$\scriptstyle#1$}}$}}
\matrix{0\cr
\mapdown{}\cr
0\mapright{}{\cal O}_C\mapright\iota
\cal E\mapright\rho\cal L\mapright{}0\cr
\Big\Vert\mapdown\phi\mapdown\psi\cr
0\mapright{}{\cal O}_C\mapright{}
\pi_*{\cal O}_D\mapright\delta
R^1f_*{\cal O}_V(-D)\mapright{}0\cr
\mapdown{\theta_i\otimes\gamma^{-1}}\cr
\hidewidth R^1f_*\bigl({\cal O}
_V(-iM)\bigr)\otimes\gamma^{-1}\hidewidth\cr
\mapdown{}\cr
0\cr}$$
Since i'm just a newbie of TeX, I don't really understand the first a few lines
of the solution. I still need some learning and practice :)
