Is there a template that allows me to create slides with only some simple formulas at most?

Assuming your LaTeX distribution has includes Beamer, here is a simple plain beamer presentation of a slide with an "equation".

\documentclass{beamer}
\begin{document}

\begin{frame}
  \(a=b\)
\end{frame}

\end{document}

Each slide is a \begin{frame} - \end{frame} Frame titles are added by \framettitle{} within each frame. You can also create a title slide using the \author{} and \title{} in combination with \titlepage in a frame.

EDIT: a useful link provided by @textenthusiast:

    Hi Peter Jansson,if you feel it's worth while you can include this link which has a good collection. http://www.latextemplates.com/template/beamer-presentation – texenthusiast Mar 17 '13 at 07:20
  • @texenthusiast Thanks for pointing out the link. I will add it but you could also add it as a comment directly to the question if you like. – Peter Jansson Mar 17 '13 at 09:42

    @PeterJansson Perhaps $a=b$? –  Mar 17 '13 at 10:30
  • @MarcvanDongen Thanks, I was not originally thinking in terms of a minimal example in every sense of the word but why not :-). I decided to go with the LaTeX shorthand instead of TeX dito even if it is sligtly less "minimal". – Peter Jansson Mar 17 '13 at 10:52

You'll find quite a few samples installed as part of your distribution.

Have a look in

/usr/local/texlive/2012/texmf-dist/doc/latex/beamer/

or if you want to view it online, http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/beamer/
