The package provides the principal packages in the AMS-LaTeX distribution. It adapts for use in LaTeX most of the mathematical features found in AMS-TeX; it is highly recommendsd as an adjunct to serious mathematical typesetting in LaTeX. When amsmath is loaded, AMS-LaTeX packages amsbsy (for bold symbols), amsopn (for operator names) and amstext (for text embdedded in mathematics) are also loaded. Amsmath is part of the LaTeX required distribution; however, several contributed packages add still further to its appeal; examples are empheq, which provides functions for decorating and highlighting mathematics, and ntheorem, for specifying theorem (and similar) definitions.

The TeX Live software distribution offers a complete TeX system for a variety of Unix, Macintosh, Windows and other platforms. It encompasses programs for editing, typesetting, previewing and printing of TeX documents in many different languages, and a large collection of TeX macros and font libraries. The distribution includes extensive general documentation about TeX, as well as the documentation for the included software packages.
Path searching library for TeX-related files
Kpathsea is a library and utility programs which provide path searching facilities for TeX file types, including the self- locating feature required for movable installations, layered on top of a general search mechanism.
Mathtools provides a series of packages designed to enhance the appearance of documents containing a lot of mathematics. The main backbone is amsmath, so those unfamiliar with this required part of the LaTeX system will probably not find the packages very useful. Mathtools provides many useful tools for mathematical typesetting. It is based on amsmath and fixes various deficiencies of amsmath and standard LaTeX. It provides: Extensible symbols, such as brackets, arrows, harpoons, etc.; Various symbols such as \coloneqq (:=); Easy creation of new tag forms; Showing equation numbers only for referenced equations; Extensible arrows, harpoons and hookarrows; Starred versions of the amsmath matrix environments for specifying the column alignment; More building blocks: multlined, cases-like environments, new gathered environments; Maths versions of \makebox, \llap, \rlap etc.; Cramped math styles; and more... Mathtools requires mhsetup.
Numerically evaluate mathematical expressions in LaTeX form
This package defines a command to wrap around a mathematical expression in its LaTeX form and, once values are assigned to variables, numerically evaluate it. The intent is to avoid the need to modify the LaTeX form of the expression being evaluated. For programs with a preview facility like LyX, or compile-as-you-go systems, interactive back-of-envelope calculations and numerical exploration are possible within the document being worked on. The package requires the bundles l3kernel and l3packages, and the amsmath and mathtools packages. Other commands iterate and find fixed points of functions of a single variable, find the zeros or extrema of such functions, calculate the terms of recurrence relations, and create multi-column tables of function values (which requires the booktabs package).
The bundle holds prototype implementations of concepts for a LaTeX designer interface, to be used with the experimental LaTeX kernel as programming tools and kernel support. Packages provided in this release are: l3keys2e, which makes the facilities of the kernel module l3keys available for use by LaTeX 2e packages; xfrac, which provides flexible split-level fractions; xparse, which provides a high-level interface for declaring document commands; and xtemplate, which provides a means of defining generic functions using a key-value syntax. All the files of the bundle are also available in the Subversion (SVN) repository of the LaTeX3 Project. The bundle on CTAN is based on a snapshot of the SVN repository; it should be used with copies of the l3kernel at SVN version 6001 or later.
The l3kernel bundle provides an implementation of the LaTeX3 programmers' interface, as a set of packages that run under LaTeX 2e. The interface provides the foundation on which the LaTeX3 kernel and other future code are built: it is an API for TeX programmers. The packages are set up so that the LaTeX3 conventions can be used with regular LaTeX 2e packages. All the files of the bundle are also available in the project's Subversion (SVN) repository
