Removing space between sum and its correspondent value with only one number representing all the equations
2
In fact, I want to know how can I remove space in the second sum of the first expression and also to have a good equations design represented with only one number. Here is the code:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{mathtools}
begin{document}
begin{align}
U_{c}(1) &= sum_{n=1}^{4}( U_{e}(n)timessum_{k=n+10}^{14}U_{Delta e}(k)) ; U_{c}(2)&= sum_{n=1}^{4}U_{e}(n)times U_{Delta e}(n+9)\ U_{c}(3)&= sum_{n=1}^{6}U_{e}(n)times U_{Delta e}(n+8); U_{c}(4)&= sum_{n=1}^{7}U_{e}(n)times U_{Delta e}(n+7)\
U_{c}(5)&= sum_{n=2}^{8}U_{e}(n)times U_{Delta e}(n+5); U_{c}(6)&= sum_{n=3}^{7}U_{e}(n)times U_{Delta e}(n+5)\
U_{c}(7)&= sum_{n=8}^{11}( U_{e}(n)timessum_{k=n-4}^{7}U_{Delta e}(k))
end{align}

Don't accept my answer if it doesn't really solve your problem.

I wouldn't do this. It worsens legibility a lot, since one expects the equation numbers to be at the right margin and not somewhere inside the paragraph. I wouldn't find this equation if it was referenced.

Some suggestions:
Use side-by-side
minipageenvironments, for the groups of 4 and 3 equations, respectivelyInside the
minipageenvironments, useequationandsplitenvironments to achieve the required style of equation numberingReplace all
timesdirectives with thinspaceEnlarge the "outer" parentheses in the first and last equations in the left-hand-side
minipageUse
mathclapto "snug up" the spacing around thesumsymbols in two casesOptional: replace all instances of
U_{DeltawithU_{!Delta, to tighten up the spacing betweenUand the subscript-Deltasymbol
Still another suggestion/observation, echoing the remark by @Skillmon: If the large curly braces are placed to the left of the blocks of equations, as indicated by the screenshot you posted, it's not going to be easy for your readers to notice the equation numbers on the right. Assuming you want to go with the proposed layout, it may be (a lot) better if the large curly braces are placed on the right, so that they direct the reader's eye to the associated equation number.

Very useful tips indeed. Still wouldn't do the second tag inside of the text block. This is bound to annoy readers.

@Skillmon - I fully agree with your comment. I've augmented my answer to post a second solution, with the curly braces placed on the right, pointing towards the associated equation numbers.

Thank you very much @miko I liked the second solution since the expressions on the right are on the center but how can I have the curly braces on the left ?
– kerdouj kardouj
Jan 22 at 11:31
@kerdoujkardouj - I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "expressions ... are on the center" or why you ask, "how can I have the curly braces on the left?". The first solution shows exactly how to place the curly braces on the left, doesn't it? And why do you write that you like the second solution, while evidently not liking its placement of the curly braces on the right? Please clarify.

The space is caused by the sum's subscript. If you remove the subscript's width, you get tight spacing. Also you miss an additional & in places where you put a ;, to start a new column with the alignment at the =.

But why is U_c(2) far from its expression and also I want these equations to be reprsented by one number instead of 4 with one bracket
– kerdouj kardouj
Jan 21 at 19:23
@kerdoujkardouj that is because you miss an additional&. See my edit. Not sure whether I got your second half right this time, though.
– Skillmon
Jan 21 at 19:26
Ah okay thank you very much @Skillmon, if I want to represent the pair expressions inside a bracket how can I do it
– kerdouj kardouj
Jan 21 at 19:29
@kerdoujkardouj adding a bit of kerning next to the brackets might enhance the look.

Use side-by-side
minipageenvironments, for the groups of 4 and 3 equations, respectivelyInside the
minipageenvironments, useequationandsplitenvironments to achieve the required style of equation numberingReplace all
timesdirectives with thinspaceEnlarge the "outer" parentheses in the first and last equations in the left-hand-side
minipageUse
mathclapto "snug up" the spacing around thesumsymbols in two casesOptional: replace all instances of
U_{DeltawithU_{!Delta, to tighten up the spacing betweenUand the subscript-Deltasymbol
Still another suggestion/observation, echoing the remark by @Skillmon: If the large curly braces are placed to the left of the blocks of equations, as indicated by the screenshot you posted, it's not going to be easy for your readers to notice the equation numbers on the right. Assuming you want to go with the proposed layout, it may be (a lot) better if the large curly braces are placed on the right, so that they direct the reader's eye to the associated equation number.

@Skillmon - I fully agree with your comment. I've augmented my answer to post a second solution, with the curly braces placed on the right, pointing towards the associated equation numbers.

Thank you very much @miko I liked the second solution since the expressions on the right are on the center but how can I have the curly braces on the left ?

@kerdoujkardouj - I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "expressions ... are on the center" or why you ask, "how can I have the curly braces on the left?". The first solution shows exactly how to place the curly braces on the left, doesn't it? And why do you write that you like the second solution, while evidently not liking its placement of the curly braces on the right? Please clarify.

The space is caused by the sum's subscript. If you remove the subscript's width, you get tight spacing. Also you miss an additional & in places where you put a ;, to start a new column with the alignment at the =.

I wouldn't do this. It worsens legibility a lot, since one expects the equation numbers to be at the right margin and not somewhere inside the paragraph. I wouldn't find this equation if it was referenced.
