I have the following code: 

\begindc{\commdiag}[500]
\obj(0,0){$k(s)$} 
\obj(0,2){$K$}
\obj(-1,1){$k(x)$}
\obj(1,1){$k(y)$}
\mor(0,0)(-1,1){}[+1,6]
\mor(0,0)(1,1){}[-1,6]
\mor(-1,1)(0,2){}[+1,6]
\mor(1,1)(0,2){}[+1,6]
\enddc

I want to put \spec inside every object.

I already defined \spec in beginning of my document as, 

\DeclareMathOperator\spec{spec}

But I get error when I do it inside the commutative diagram.

May I recommend to use the more modern package ? This would look like this:

% arara: pdflatex

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz-cd}
\usepackage{mathtools}
\DeclareMathOperator\spec{spec}

\begin{document}
\[
\begin{tikzcd}[every arrow/.append style={hook}]
& \spec K & \\
\spec K(x)\arrow{ur} & & \spec K(y)\arrow{ul} \\
& \spec k(s)\arrow{ur}\arrow{ul} &
\end{tikzcd}
\]
\end{document}

If you want to stick to dcpic, you may use the starred version of \DeclareMathOperator as a workaround.

% arara: pdflatex

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pictexwd,dcpic}
\usepackage{mathtools}
\DeclareMathOperator*\spec{spec} % Asterisk added

\begin{document}
\begindc{\commdiag}[500]
\obj(0,0){$\spec k(s)$} 
\obj(0,2){$\spec K$}
\obj(-1,1){$\spec k(x)$}
\obj(1,1){$\spec k(y)$}
\mor(0,0)(-1,1){}[+1,6]
\mor(0,0)(1,1){}[-1,6]
\mor(-1,1)(0,2){}[+1,6]
\mor(1,1)(0,2){}[+1,6]
\enddc
\end{document}

  • Neither the normal form nor the starred form initiate display math. The error is much subtler and using the star form is not the solution.

  • @egreg thanks, I remove that paragraph and hope for an answer from you.

  • Investigating; it surely has to do with the fact that \nolimits@ looks ahead in order to kill a \limits token.

It's a bug in dcpic, which uses \edef instead of \protected@edef:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{dcpic,pictexwd}
\DeclareMathOperator\spec{spec}

\makeatletter
\@namedef{!coloca}#1#2{\protected@edef\pilha{#1.#2}} % had \edef
\makeatother

\begin{document}
\begindc{\commdiag}[500]
\obj(0,0){$\spec k(s)$}
\obj(0,2){$\spec K$}
\obj(-1,1){$\spec k(x)$}
\obj(1,1){$\spec k(y)$}
\mor(0,0)(-1,1){}[+1,6]
\mor(0,0)(1,1){}[-1,6]
\mor(-1,1)(0,2){}[+1,6]
\mor(1,1)(0,2){}[+1,6]
\enddc
\end{document}
