I would like a commutative diagram like

\begin{equation*} 
\begin{tikzcd}[row sep=huge]     

    A \, \arrow[r] \arrow[d] & B  \arrow[d] \\ 

    C & D \arrow[l] \\

\end{tikzcd} 
\end{equation*}

In the commutative diagram I would like the symbol "A" to be replaced by an equation like 

\begin{equation} \label{myequation} 
\begin{array}{rcl} 

E & = & m c^2 \\

E & = & m c^3 

\end{array} 
\end{equation}

and I would like to reference that equation outside, with \ref{myequation}. How do I do that?

    What do you precisely mean by “an equation with a label”? – egreg Jan 23 '19 at 23:46

    Do you means something of the sort \begin{equation*} \begin{tikzcd}[row sep=huge] equation \, 1 with \, a \, label \, \arrow[r] \arrow[d] & E=m\,c^2\quad(\stepcounter{equation}\theequation) \arrow[d] \\ A & B \arrow[l] \\ \end{tikzcd} \end{equation*}? –  Jan 24 '19 at 00:13

    By "an equation with a label", do you mean a full equation, or do you mean a cross-reference to an equation labelled somewhere else in the document? Please advise. – Mico Jan 24 '19 at 02:22

Still not sure I understand your question, but here is what I think you might want.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{tikz-cd}
\begin{document}
\begin{equation} 
\begin{tikzcd}[row sep=huge,ampersand replacement=\&]     
    \label{eq:Schmarrn}(\theequation)~\left\{\begin{array}{@{}r@{\,}c@{\,}l} 
E & = & m c^2 \\
E & = & m c^3 
\end{array}\right.  \, \arrow[r] \arrow[d] \& B  \arrow[d] \\ 
    C \& D \arrow[l] \\
\end{tikzcd} \notag\stepcounter{equation}
\end{equation}
Einstein said that 
\begin{equation}\label{eq:Einstein}
E  =  m c^2
\end{equation}
and the second equality in \eqref{eq:Schmarrn} is not quite right. On the other
hand, \eqref{eq:Einstein} is correct.
\end{document}

As for your request. Building on this answer you could do:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{tikz-cd}
\begin{document}
\begin{align}\label{eq:Schmarrn}
\makebox[\displaywidth]{
\begin{tikzcd}[row sep=huge,ampersand replacement=\&]     
A  \, \arrow[r] \arrow[d] \& 
    \left.\begin{array}{@{}r@{\,}l} 
E & =  m c^2 \\
E & =  m c^3 
\end{array}\right\}  \arrow[d] \\ 
    C \& D \arrow[l] \\
\end{tikzcd}} \raisetag{24.4ex}
\end{align}
Einstein said that 
\begin{equation}\label{eq:Einstein}
E  =  m c^2
\end{equation}
and the second equality in \eqref{eq:Schmarrn} is not quite right. On the other
hand, \eqref{eq:Einstein} is correct.
\end{document}

  • Yes, thank you. But I also want a multiline equation in place of the "B." Further, I would like the equations to have only 2 columns, adjusted right and left, resp. I know these should be simple changes, but I did the obvious changes, and I keep getting errors from latex. – district9 Feb 01 '19 at 19:41
  • @district9 I added something. If you want modifications, please ask a new question. –  Feb 01 '19 at 20:12

    Sorry, now I accepted it. I am new to the site. Thank you! – district9 Feb 01 '19 at 22:23

I think you want something like this:

which comes from enclosing your intended text "equation 1 with a label" in \text{...}. Otherwise LaTeX considers equation1withalabel to be a single variable-- where it needs \, as a word-separator.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,tikz-cd}

\begin{document}
    \begin{equation*}
    \begin{tikzcd}[row sep=huge]
    \text{equation 1 with a label } \arrow[r] \arrow[d] &   
    \text{equation 2 with a label } \arrow[d] \\
                                A                       & 
                                B   \arrow[l] \\
    \end{tikzcd}
    \end{equation*}
\end{document}

\end{document}
