I keep having to typeset variance vectors :) Ah, but i'm not sure if they are already defined in context. I'll see if I can find myself the fonts (must be somewhere on my computer I think). Math is a bit problematic anyway, due to the lack of families in tex and the fact that the last font switch dominates all, a (mis)feature of tex (sideeffect actually).
