comment Graphing sine function in MetaPost
+1 for answering the question, using metapost (not Tikz), and not using fancy LaTeX dialects (i.e., you avoided LuaLaTeX).

comment Correct way to typset esssup (essential supremum)
Note that \, and friends are math spacing whereas \thinspace and co. are text spacing, which is a critical distinction (it produces errors otherwise).

comment How should imaginary numbers be typeset?
Unrelated suggestion: define \def\I{i} and simply use \I everywhere in your math. You can fix your one macro later, after finishing your manuscript. After many similar problems, I found this helps me maintain productivity.

comment Is it Possible to Obtain Rudin-Style LaTeX Document Format?
@JTian: are you interested in the font? The proof environment? The subsection format? The equation numbering? The margin formatting? Specifically, what are you interested in? You appear to only talk about font, so is that what you're really asking about? (There's more to typography than just the font, you know!)

comment Change appearance of equation numbers locally
You could also write in the preamble \let\oldappendices\appendices then \def\appendices{\def\theequation{\Alph{chapter}.\arabic{equation}}\oldappendice‌​s} which may be "too TeX" and "not enough LaTeX" of an answer...

comment The character ə in Plain TeX?
Yes, but the problem is: I'm forced to use plain TeX. That's a great LaTeX solution, though...
