Consider the following MWE:

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}

\usepackage[fleqn]{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage{enumitem}

\newcommand{\C}{\mathbb{C}}
\begin{document}

\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\itemsep -0.2em
\item \begin{equation*}
    e^z =  \sum_{n=0} z^n / n!
\end{equation*}
\item \begin{equation*}
    \sin z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n+1}/ (2n+1)!
\end{equation*}
\item \begin{equation*}
    \cos z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n}/ 2n! \\
    \text{which converges } \forall \ z \in \C 
\end{equation*}
\item \begin{equation*}
    \log_e (1 - z) = - \sum_{n=1} z^n/n
\end{equation*}
\item \begin{equation*}
    (1 - z)^{-1} = \sum_{n=0} z^n \\
    \text{which converges for } |z| < 1 
\end{equation*}
\end{enumerate}

\end{document}

How can I get the enumeration numbers (i, ii, etc) on the same line as the equations?

    Why do you use equation* if you want the behavior of equation?

    I want the enumeration to do the labeling on the left, equation won't do that. Further, I don't want the equations labeled as such, but enumerated. Commented Apr 21, 2017 at 17:43

    It will do it! LaTeX is very flexible. Btw: If you use enumitem never mess with \itemsep manually.

    @AthenaWidget And now please admit that equation will do it :) Commented Apr 21, 2017 at 17:51

I don't see anything in your questions, which couldn't be done using equation.

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}

\usepackage[fleqn]{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\newcommand{\C}{\mathbb{C}}

\newcounter{dummy}

\makeatletter
\newcommand{\leqnomode}{\tagsleft@true}
\makeatother

\begin{document}

\begin{equation}
   normalequation
\end{equation}

\bgroup
    \leqnomode
    \setcounter{dummy}{\theequation}
    \renewcommand{\theequation}{\roman{equation}}%

    \begin{equation}
        e^z =  \sum_{n=0} z^n / n!
    \end{equation}
    \begin{equation}
        \sin z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n+1}/ (2n+1)!
    \end{equation}
    \begin{equation}
        \cos z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n}/ 2n! \\
        \text{which converges } \forall \ z \in \C 
    \end{equation}
    \begin{equation}
        \log_e (1 - z) = - \sum_{n=1} z^n/n
    \end{equation}
    \begin{equation}
        (1 - z)^{-1} = \sum_{n=0} z^n \\
        \text{which converges for } |z| < 1 
    \end{equation}

    \setcounter{equation}{\thedummy}
\egroup

\bgroup
    \leqnomode
    \setcounter{dummy}{\theequation}
    \renewcommand{\theequation}{\roman{equation}}%

    \begin{equation}
        e^z =  \sum_{n=0} z^n / n!
    \end{equation}
    \begin{equation}
        \sin z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n+1}/ (2n+1)!
    \end{equation}
    \begin{equation}
        \cos z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n}/ 2n! \\
        \text{which converges } \forall \ z \in \C 
    \end{equation}
    \begin{equation}
        \log_e (1 - z) = - \sum_{n=1} z^n/n
    \end{equation}
    \begin{equation}
        (1 - z)^{-1} = \sum_{n=0} z^n \\
        \text{which converges for } |z| < 1 
    \end{equation}

    \setcounter{equation}{\thedummy}
\egroup

\begin{equation}
   normal equation
\end{equation}

  • Probably the spacing would be better with gather or align.

  • @Bernard Probably. Would you like to add an answer? Commented Apr 21, 2017 at 19:24

    No, I think I'll add a ‘real’ enumerate answer instead. You can update your answer if you wish. Perhaps you might add details on how to maintain the current equation counter.

A solution with the enumerate environment:

\documentclass[12pt, a4paper]{article}

\usepackage[fleqn]{mathtools}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage{enumitem}

\newcommand{\C}{\mathbb{C}}

\begin{document}

\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*), leftmargin=*, itemsep=0.4ex, before={\everymath{\displaystyle}}]%
  \item $ e^z = \sum_{n=0} z^n / n! $ \label{eq-1}
  \item $ \sin z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n+1}/ (2n+1)! $\label{eq-2}
  \item $ \begin{aligned}[t]
        & \cos z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n}/ 2n!\\
        & \text{which converges $ \forall \ z \in \C $} \label{eq-3}
  \end{aligned}
  $
  \item $ \log_e (1 - z) = - \sum_{n=1} z^n/n $ \label{eq-4}
  \item $\begin{aligned}[t] & (1 - z)^{-1} = \sum_{n=0} z^n ,\\
        &\text{which converges for $ |z| < 1 $} \end{aligned}$ \label{eq-5}
\end{enumerate}
 It is easy to prove eq. \ref{eq-3}. 

\end{document}

A solution based on the TeXnician's comment.

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}

\usepackage[leqno, fleqn]{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{ mathtools }

\newcommand{\C}{\mathbb{C}}

\makeatletter
\newcommand{\leqnomode}{\tagsleft@true}
\newcommand{\reqnomode}{\tagsleft@false}
\makeatother

\newtagform{Alph}[\renewcommand{\theequation}{\Alph{equation}}]()
\newtagform{roman}[\renewcommand{\theequation}{\roman{equation}}]()
\newtagform{scroman}[\renewcommand{\theequation}{\scshape\roman{equation}}]
[]

\begin{document}

\usetagform{roman}
\begin{align}
   &e^z =  \sum_{n=0} z^n / n! \\
   &\sin z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n+1}/ (2n+1)! \\
   &\cos z = \sum_{n=0} (-1)^n z^{2n}/ 2n! \text{   which converges } 
   \forall \ z \in \C  \\
   &\log_e (1 - z) = - \sum_{n=1} z^n/n \\
   &(1 - z)^{-1} = \sum_{n=0} z^n  \text{   which converges for } |z| < 1 
\end{align}

%\setcounter{equation}{0}
\end{document}

  • Something occurred to me, what if I wanted the equations enumerated and labeled. I think @samcarter has the better answer. Commented Apr 24, 2017 at 15:05
