Spacing around tilde{=}












7














How can I get proper spacing when using tilde over operator symbols?



begin{align*}
x &= y\
x &tilde{=} b
end{align*}


Yields:



enter image description here



But I would like the tilde version to have the same kind of spacing as normal equality

    Why don't you use simeq or cong instead?

You can make arbitrary symbol a relation by wrapping it into mathrel{}. For example: mathrel{tilde{=}} will use the correct spaces around it. There are other ways: stackrel{}{} (as Herbert noted), or use of a predefined symbol like cong. They all have different looks. Chose what you prefer:



documentclass{article}
usepackage{amsmath}
newcommandteq{mathrel{tilde{=}}}
newcommandseq{stackrel{sim}{=}}
begin{document}
begin{align*}
x &= y\
x &teq b\
x &seq b\
x &cong b\
end{align*}
end{document}


The result:

      Here there is another minimal example.



      enter image description here



      documentclass{article}
      usepackage{amsmath}
      usepackage{amssymb}
      begin{document}

      begin{align*}
      x &= y\
      x &overset{sim}{=} b
      end{align*}

      begin{align*}
      x &= y\
      x &overset{thicksim}{=} b
      end{align*}

      end{document}
