Abstract

This paper outlines the functionality and implementation of the Notation package, an extension to the Mathematica front end, allowing the user to introduce advanced notations. Following this, several advanced example notations are presented. These include complete and functioning notations for both Dirac's bra-ket notation as well as for tensorial expressions. Proper functioning notations for both of these objects have not been previously presented in a major symbolic computation system, if at all.
