Questions tagged [multline]

{multline} is a math environment provided by the amsmath package for single equations that span several lines.

The first line of the equation will be set at the left margin, the last line on the right margin, and all possible other lines will be centered. This behaviour can be changed with the \shoveleft and \shoveright commands, that take entire lines as their argument, and place them at the left, resp. right margin. A multline environment thus contains no alignment points &. The environment gets a single equation number that is placed at the first line, while the reqno option of the package shifts the equation number to the last line.

For a similar multi-line equation that shall be part of a larger equation the mathtools package provides the multlined environment.

Remove vertical space between two consecutive multline environments

How can I remove the additional vertical space between two multline environments? In fact, I have a list of two-line-equations and I want the second line aligned to the right. So I write: \begin{multline*} x = 1 + 2 \\ + 3…

Multline spacing between lines of an equation too wide

The multline environment seems to be behaving very oddly for me in that the spacing between different lines of an equation seems to be off. For example, for the following line of latex code, \begin{multline*} p(x) = 3x^6 + 14x^5y + 590x^4y^2…

Multi-lined condition of a piecewise function

How can I add a second line to the condition in my piecewise function? I'm using the multlined environment, but it's producing quite an ugly result: Ideally, I would want the two conditions right on top of each other, and without any indentation.…

Where should the continuing operator be placed for long equations?

In mathematical writing, for long equations (using multline environment), where should the continuing operator, such as +,-, /, etc., be placed: at the end of first line or before the start of the next line? I have shown the two types in the…
