I have the following problem when I want use minimum among some numbers.

$\min_{1}$ works well but

$$\min_{1} $$ or 

\begin{eqnarray*}
\min_{1} 
\end{eqnarray*}

are looking very odd.

    You're probably looking for \min\nolimits_{1}. Side note: $$...$$ is deprecated in LaTeX, and don't use eqnarray: prefer align and friends from amsmath instead. – Paul Gessler Mar 18 '15 at 11:37

    What exactly is \min_{1} in this case? There is a reason why \min behaves like this in displayed context. – daleif Mar 18 '15 at 12:01
  • it is conventional to put the limit underneath, same as with \sum, in things like \min_{0\leq x \leq N} f(x) – David Carlisle Mar 18 '15 at 12:17
