Spacing around tilde{=}
How can I get proper spacing when using tilde
over operator symbols?
begin{align*}
x &= y\
x &tilde{=} b
end{align*}
Yields:
But I would like the tilde version to have the same kind of spacing as normal equality

Why don't you usesimeq
orcong
instead?

@Sebastiano I changed it. There is no need to ask me, you can edit such an typo by your own, if you saw it. I just oversaw it ...

You can make arbitrary symbol a relation by wrapping it into mathrel{}
. For example: mathrel{tilde{=}}
will use the correct spaces around it. There are other ways: stackrel{}{}
(as Herbert noted), or use of a predefined symbol like cong
. They all have different looks. Chose what you prefer:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{amsmath}
newcommandteq{mathrel{tilde{=}}}
newcommandseq{stackrel{sim}{=}}
begin{document}
begin{align*}
x &= y\
x &teq b\
x &seq b\
x &cong b\
end{align*}
end{document}
The result:

begin{align*}
x &= y\
x &stackrel{sim}{=} b
end{align*}

Here there is another minimal example.
documentclass{article}
usepackage{amsmath}
usepackage{amssymb}
begin{document}
begin{align*}
x &= y\
x &overset{sim}{=} b
end{align*}
begin{align*}
x &= y\
x &overset{thicksim}{=} b
end{align*}
end{document}
