Key Equations

$$\pi(x,t) = \frac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial(\partial_0\phi)} = \frac{\partial \mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{\phi}}$$
$$\mathcal{H} = \pi\dot{\phi} - \mathcal{L}$$
$$\hat{H} = \int d^3x \, \mathcal{H}(\hat{\phi}, \hat{\pi})$$
$$\hat{H} = \int d^3x \left[\frac{1}{2}\hat{\pi}^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\nabla\hat{\phi})^2 + \frac{1}{2}m^2\hat{\phi}^2\right]$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
