Using mathematical symbols in WIKI pages

We use "mimetex" to produce mathematical formulae (based on $\LaTeX$ terminology). The markup {$ and $} can be used to embed a formula in a wiki page. For example, the markup

{$ x^2 + y^2 = z^2 $}

produces

$x^2 + y^2 = z^2$

More complex formulas can be generated--for example:

{$ e^x=\relstack{\rm lim}{n\rightar\infty}$1+\frac xn$^n $}

becomes

$e^x=\relstack{\rm lim}{n\rightar\infty}$1+\frac xn$^n$

See the full mimeTeX manual [forkosh.com] for more details.
