[Equation Editor] Argmin and Argmax parameter

Question

Sign in to vote

hi
there is one slight problem i have with equation editor and it that i cant write argmax and argmin parameter below the main function. for example i want to find i which minimize a function
W=argmin_i f(i)

the first i should be just below the argmin, but if i use _ it will be after thr argmin and below it. i also used the matrix section "2x1 emtry matrix" but it will reduce the size of the argmin and make the whole equation ugly.
is there a solution for this?
best regards.

Hi,

As this issue, add ”” to _ then the issue will be solved.

In the Equation, type in: W=argmin”_”i f(i)

I have the same problem. When I use your solution all I get is argmin_i

Hi!

I had the same problem.

The solution seems to be: use 'min' instead of 'argmin', because it has a place for a parameter below it. Then you simply click 'min' and rename it to 'argmin'.

Only this is the right answer !
