A function of two variables as y-axis label in Plot

Anonymous User

Hello,

I am able to add f[t] as an y-axis label and it works beautifully. However, if I try f[r,t], the code crashes. I don't want to use quotes cause it doesn't put the label in italics. Any ideas?

Plot[{f[1/8, t], f[1/4, t], f[3/8, t], f[1/2, t], f[5/8, t], 
  f[3/4, t], f[7/8, t]}, {t, 0, 15}, AxesLabel -> {t, f[t]}]

Attached the result (this is a plot of the zeta function for different real parts: 1/2 is the middle curve):

Jose,

For publication quality plots take a look at Szabolcs Horvát's MaTeX package and Mark Caprio's SciDraw package.

WL uses ColorData[97, "ColorList"] by default. To see the other available indexed color options

ColorData["Indexed"] // Map[(# -> ColorData[#, "ColorList"] &), #] & //
   Partition[#, UpTo[2]] & // Grid[#, Alignment -> Left] &

I made an attempt at reading your paper, but quickly realized it would take me a while to understand. Will make another attempt when I have more time.

Thank you, Rohit. I am changing my mind by the minute, lol.

How can I specify colors for say 7 curves in a plot (not pairwise this time)? Do I need to use Riffle as well? At this I'm getting overwhelmed with so many curves in a single plot.

Riffle is used to create the pairs of duplicated colors. If you not need that then just specify a list of colors explicitly using a named color {Red, LightGreen, ...}, or RGBColor, or use one of the built-in indexed color lists that I showed in an earlier reply. e.g. to use the default WL colors

PlotStyle -> ColorData[97, "ColorList"]]

Perfect, I already incorporated those suggestions. Thanks so much

Something like this?

ClearAll@f
f[s_, t_] := s*t*Sin[t]
colors = {Red, Green, Blue};

Plot[{f[1/8, t], f[1/4, t], f[3/8, t], f[1/2, t], f[5/8, t], f[3/4, t], f[7/8, t]}, {t, 0, 15}, 
 PlotStyle -> Riffle[colors, colors]]

Wow, exactly. Let me try this, this will make my final graph pretty cool. I'm using it in a paper on the zeta function.

PS - I wonder how you were able to manage to imitate my curves and recolor them, Lol.

Hi Rohit, what if I had say 7 pairs with the same color, and one extra line. Should I place the line last, will it work?

Hi Jose,

If you have N curves and the length of the PlotStyle list of colors is less than N, then the color list will repeat from the beginning. If you do not want it to repeat, append another color. So in your case the list should be 7 pairs of colors followed by the color for the last curve

{c1, c1, c2, c2, c3, c3, c4, c4, c5, c5, c6, c6, c7, c7, c8}

Sure

Defer[f[r, t] - 2 t]

Any Style can also be applied e.g.

Style[Defer[f[r, t] - 2 t], 18, Bold, Blue, FontFamily -> "Times New Roman"]

So a string can also be used, but the appearance will be a little different from using Defer or TraditionalForm e.g.

Style["f(r,t) - 2t]", 18, Bold, Blue, FontFamily -> "Times New Roman", FontSlant -> Italic]

Rohit, is it possible to force curves, 2 by 2, to have the same color? Reason why I'm asking is cause I want to have 14 curves in the same graph! There are two equations for each one of 7 r parameters.

Hi Jose,

The problem is that f[x] is being evaluated. Try

AxesLabel -> {t, Defer@f[r, t]}

Perfect, exactly what I needed. Thank you!

Is it possible to have something like f(r,t)-2t in italics as well?
