Ilia Zaichuk: I've made the appropriate changes to the markup to make text display in MathJax (which is the LaTeX-syntax markup language used for maths on this site and on Stack Exchange). However, I think it's a bug in Arbital (which I've just pointed out to the developers) that it's not rendering correctly. (EDIT: I've altered the markup into a form that works around the bug. It just makes the markup look a bit less nice.)
In general, you can use \text{text here}; if you want to put maths inline with the text here, you can use dollar signs:
\text{Heinz $57$ Varieties}
Additionally, if you have a mathematical string you want to typeset, like "sin", you can use \mathrm{sin} which shows up as sin. (It so happens that there is already a built-in symbol that does that for sin: \sin.)
Right now in order to find this page (as opposed to being linked to it) I have to know that it's called "set_mathematics." This seems inelegant and bad. I would rather the URL of this page be something like /p/1lw/set.
