  Hi there. WordPress.com supports LaTeX code for mathematical notation. You insert the code via a shortcode as explained here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/latex/

  That support doc links to two sites that can help you with the code itself. I can also recommend this one: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Mathematics

  You’re welcome. And good luck with figuring out LaTeX. For the most part it’s Greek to me ;-)
