I'm using the following commands in my preamble to get the fonts I want:
\usepackage{cmbright}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{pxfonts}
I recently found that, in math mode, when I use the command \log
or \exp
(as opposed to \text{log}
or \text{exp}
), the logarithmic and exponential functions get resolved in the math font I want to use (pxfonts). However, I often use other functions such as "logit" and "expit", for example:
\begin{equation}
\text{logit} \Bigg \{ P(Y = 1| X = x) \Bigg \} = \beta_0 + s(x),
\end{equation}
In this case, "logit" resolves in the font used in the main text (cmbright), which stands out as somewhat of an eyesore. Is there a way I can create functions \logit
and \expit
that, in math mode, will return "logit" and "expit" using the desired math font (pxfonts) and not the main text font (cmbright)?
\DeclareMathOperator
(fromamsmath
) is your friend.\Bigg \{ P(Y = 1| X = x) \Bigg \}
, you may want to write\bigl\{\, P(Y = 1\mid X = x) \,\bigr\}
. If you really need the curly braces to be bigger than\big
, try\Big
-- but not\Bigg
.
