LaTeX to CAS translator

Jump to navigation Jump to search

This mockup demonstrates the concept of TeX to Computer Algebra System (CAS) conversion.

The demo-application converts LaTeX functions which directly translate to CAS counterparts.

Functions without explicit CAS support are available for translation via a DRMF package (under development).

The following LaTeX input ...

{\displaystyle \frac{1}{|\mathbf{x}-\mathbf{y}|^{n-2}} = \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{|\mathbf{x}|^k}{|\mathbf{y}|^{k+n-2}}C_k^{(\alpha)}(\mathbf{x}\cdot \mathbf{y}).}

... is translated to the CAS output ...

Semantic latex: \frac{1}{\abs{\mathbf{x} - \mathbf{y}}^{n-2}} = \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{\abs{\mathbf{x}}^k}{\abs{\mathbf{y}}^{k+n-2}} \ultrasphpoly{\alpha}{k}@{\mathbf{x} \cdot \mathbf{y}}

Confidence: 0.6805

Mathematica

Translation: Divide[1,(Abs[x - y])^(n - 2)] == Sum[Divide[(Abs[x])^(k),(Abs[y])^(k + n - 2)]*GegenbauerC[k, \[Alpha], x * y], {k, 0, Infinity}, GenerateConditions->None]

Sub Equations

  • Divide[1,(Abs[x - y])^(n - 2)] = Sum[Divide[(Abs[x])^(k),(Abs[y])^(k + n - 2)]*GegenbauerC[k, \[Alpha], x * y], {k, 0, Infinity}, GenerateConditions->None]

  • Could be the second Feigenbaum constant.

But this system doesn't know how to translate it as a constant. It was translated as a general letter.
