LaTeX Conventions (thesis + HTML)

Build and serve (packages/latex_viterbo)

Note: LaTeX builds require TexLive, which is only available in the local devcontainer (not in web environment).

  • Lint: scripts/lint.sh (chktex + draft compile + latexml sanity)
  • Build: scripts/build.sh [--production] [--pdf-only] [--html-only]
  • Serve: scripts/serve.sh [--production] [--watch] [--pdf-only] [--html-only]
  • Draft speedup: use includeonly.tex (copy from includeonly.tex.example).

LaTeX style

  • Use \(...\) inline, \[...\] display (avoid $).
  • Proofs in proof environment; label theorems/lemmas consistently.
  • arXiv-friendly packages only.

Thesis writing style

  • Audience: symplectic geometers; self-contained exposition.
  • Separate mainline text from asides.
  • Introduce notation once; note deviations from literature.
  • Be explicit but skimmable; spoilers up front; headings guide the reader.
  • Mark WIP text clearly (e.g., \edit{} or %).

Assets

  • LaTeX includes assets; Python generates them.
  • Store under packages/latex_viterbo/assets/<experiment>/....
  • LaTeXML extras under packages/latex_viterbo/assets/{html/,latexml/}.
  • Hand-crafted assets under packages/latex_viterbo/assets/manual/.

References

  • LaTeXML HTML pipeline notes: references/ar5iv-pipeline-notes.md
  • LaTeXML troubleshooting: references/latexml-troubleshooting.md
  • Clarke talk teardown checklist: packages/latex_talk_clarke_duality/docs/teardown.md
