I am writing my mathematical formula in latex and I would like to create the following list. However, I want to add some more space between the indixes and the definitions and to write the definitions in Italic. How would you do that?

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[super]{natbib}
\usepackage{comment}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{adjustbox}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{lscape}
\usepackage{multicol}
\captionsetup[figure]{font=small,labelfont=bf}
\captionsetup[table]{font=small,labelfont=bf}
\usepackage[justification=centering]{caption}
\usepackage{eurosym}
\usepackage[table, dvipsnames]{xcolor}

\begin{document}
\subsubsection{Indices} 
The following indices capture the dimension of the problem:


\begin{itemize}
\item[k]{suppliers, $k\in {1,…, K}$}\
\vspace{-2mm}\item[i]facilities, $i\in {1,…, I}, I \subset K$\

\vspace{-2mm}\item[o]OpCos, $o\in {1,…, O}$\
\vspace{-2mm}\item[j]customers, $j\in {1,…, J}, J \subset O$\
\vspace{-2mm}\item[p]products, $p\in {1,…, P}$\
\vspace{-2mm}\item[g]transportation modes, $g\in {1,…, G}$\
\vspace{-2mm}\item[y]years, $y\in {1,…, Y}$\
\end{itemize}


\end{document}

enter image description here

Thanks!!

For the space between the items, you could use \itemsep command directly after the begin opening the list environment.

For italics, you could either enclose your labels with $$ that would turn them to math mode. Or use enumitem package.

MWE:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{enumitem} 
\setlist[itemize]{font=\normalfont\itshape\space}

\begin{document}


\begin{itemize}
\itemsep-2mm
\item[k]{suppliers, $k\in {1,…, K}$}\
\item[i]facilities, $i\in {1,…, I}, I \subset K$\

\item[o]OpCos, $o\in {1,…, O}$\
\item[j]customers, $j\in {1,…, J}, J \subset O$\
\item[p]products, $p\in {1,…, P}$\
\item[g]transportation modes, $g\in {1,…, G}$\
\item[y]years, $y\in {1,…, Y}$\
\end{itemize}


\end{document}

  • How can we set the distance between items equal to the space between lines in the text? – Amin Jan 16 '22 at 00:53
  • Hi Katatonia, welcome to TeX.SX! Usualy I would recommend that you open a new question if you have one - because this is what this site is all about: asking questions, and getting answers. Your question is a good one and should be on the page. However, someone already asked something quite similar and the answer is in here https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/10689/90297. I would recommend searching for things like "itemize spacing" in the TeX.SX search line next time. – Elad Den Jan 16 '22 at 11:06
