LaTeX and Github Pages

Github-Pages uses Kramdown as the markdown processor. Kramdown does not support LaTeX. Instead, there is a javascript header that loads MathJax, parses the page, and replaces LaTeX maths instructions with their proper formulae. Here is how to do it:

1. Open _includes/head-custom.html and paste the following code:

<script type="text/x-mathjax-config">
MathJax.Hub.Config({
    TeX: {
      equationNumbers: {
        autoNumber: "AMS"
      }
    },
    tex2jax: {
    inlineMath: [ ['$', '$'], ['\\(', '\\)'] ],
    displayMath: [ ['$$', '$$'], ['\\[', '\\]'] ],
    processEscapes: true,
  }
});
MathJax.Hub.Register.MessageHook("Math Processing Error",function (message) {
      alert("Math Processing Error: "+message[1]);
    });
MathJax.Hub.Register.MessageHook("TeX Jax - parse error",function (message) {
      alert("Math Processing Error: "+message[1]);
    });
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" async
  src="https://cdn.mathjax.org/mathjax/latest/MathJax.js?config=TeX-MML-AM_CHTML">
</script>
