    The use of Unicode characters for blackboard bold is discouraged in English Wikipedia; instead, either the LaTeX rendering (for example <math>\mathbb{Z}</math> or <math>\Z</math>) or standard bold fonts should be used. As with all such choices, each article should be consistent with itself, and editors should not change articles from one choice ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_markup_language

    A mathematical markup language is a computer notation for representing mathematical formulae, based on mathematical notation.Specialized markup languages are necessary because computers normally deal with linear text and more limited character sets (although increasing support for Unicode is obsoleting very simple uses).

    Frequently the word link is used to describe any submanifold of the sphere diffeomorphic to a disjoint union of a finite number of spheres, .. In full generality, the word link is essentially the same as the word knot – the context is that one has a submanifold M of a manifold N (considered to be trivially embedded) and a non-trivial embedding of M in N, non-trivial in the sense that the 2nd ...
