\subsection{Displays with alignment}

+There are a number of ways to produce displays with multiple lines and

+\begin{itemize}
+\item The \texttt{align} and \texttt{align*} environments allow
+ horizontal alignment of characters chosen from each line (see

+ section~\ref{sec:gathered}). (Of course, this doesn't involve
+ horizontal alignment, but the \texttt{gathered} environment is often
+ used in conjunction with other display environments.)
+\item The \texttt{align} and \texttt{align*} environments also allow
+ for multiple alignment points (see section~\ref{sec:MulAlign}).
+\item The \texttt{flalign} and \texttt{flalign*} environments allow
+ multiple alignment points and place the outermost aligned blocks
+ flush against the margins (see section~\ref{sec:flalign}).
+\item The \texttt{alignat} and \texttt{alignat*} environments allow
+ multiple alignment points and allow you to choose the spacing
+ between the columns (see section~\ref{sec:alignat}).

+ \texttt{alignat*} environment, except that it produces an alignment
+ intended to be part of a larger display (see

+\end{itemize}
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------
+\subsubsection{Displays with a single alignment point}
+\label{sec:SingAlign}
+
To display several lines of mathematics with alignment between the
-lines, you use the \verb"align" environment. When typing this, the
-lines are separated by a double backslash \verb"\\" and each line has
-an ampersand \verb"&" immediately preceding the symbol to be aligned
-with the corresponding symbols on the other lines. For example, if

+\subsubsection{Alignments that are part of a larger display}
+\label{sec:aligned}
+
+The \texttt{aligned} environment does not create a display of its own.
+Instead, it allows you to have several lines of mathematics, with
+alignment as in the \texttt{align*} environment (see
+section~\ref{sec:SingAlign}), which can then be used inside of a
+displayed mathematics environment.
+
+There is also a \texttt{split} environment, which is similar to the
+\texttt{aligned} environment except that the \texttt{aligned}
+environment has options (changing the vertical alignment (see the
+examples in this section) or having multiple alignment points (see
+section~\ref{sec:MulAlign})) that are not possible with the
+\texttt{split} environment. Thus, a \texttt{split} environment can
+always be replaced by an \texttt{aligned} environment.
+
+For example, if you type
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{equation}
- \label{eq:split}
- \begin{split}
+ \label{eq:dblaligned}
+ \begin{aligned}
a &= b + c\\
d &= e + f
- \end{split}
+ \end{aligned}
+ \qquad\text{which, of course, leads to}\qquad
+ \begin{aligned}
+ g &= h + i\\
+ j &= k + l
+ \end{aligned}
\end{equation}
\end{verbatim}
then you'll get
\begin{equation}
- \label{eq:split}
- \begin{split}
+ \label{eq:dblaligned}
+ \begin{aligned}
a &= b + c\\
d &= e + f

+ \end{aligned}
+ \qquad\text{which, of course, leads to}\qquad
+ \begin{aligned}
+ g &= h + i\\
+ j &= k + l
+ \end{aligned}
\end{equation}
-The \verb"split" environment doesn't produce any equation numbers of
-its own, and if the enclosing display environment produces a number
-then that number is centered vertically in the contents of the
-\verb"split". This can also be useful if you need to display one very
-long equation that you need to split over multiple lines and you want
-the equation number to be centered vertically. For example, if you
-type
+
+The above example illustrates that, by default, when an
+\texttt{aligned} (or \texttt{aligned*}) environment is used as part of
+a display involving other elements, it is vertically aligned at its
+center. The \texttt{aligned} environment can take an optional
+argument of \texttt{[t]} or \texttt{[b]} to cause the alignment to be
+at either the top or the bottom row. For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{equation}
+ \label{eq:dbltop}
+ \begin{aligned}[t]
+ a &= b + c\\
+ d &= e + f
+ \end{aligned}

+ \begin{aligned}[t]
+ g &= h + i\\
+ j &= k + l

+\begin{equation}
+ \label{eq:dbltop}

+ \qquad\text{which, of course, leads to}\qquad

+and if you type

+ a &= b + c\\
+ d &= e + f
+ \end{aligned}
+ \qquad\text{which, of course, leads to}\qquad
+ \begin{aligned}[b]
+ g &= h + i\\
+ j &= k + l
+ \end{aligned}
+\end{equation}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{equation}
+ \label{eq:dblbot}
+ \begin{aligned}[b]
+ a &= b + c\\
+ d &= e + f
+ \end{aligned}
+ \qquad\text{which, of course, leads to}\qquad
+ \begin{aligned}[b]
+ g &= h + i\\
+ j &= k + l
+ \end{aligned}
+\end{equation}
+
+The \textbf{aligned} environment doesn't produce any equation numbers
+of its own. If the enclosing display environment produces a number,
+and if the \texttt{aligned} environment doesn't use the optional
+argument of \texttt{[t]} or \texttt{[b]}, then that number is centered
+vertically in the contents of the \texttt{aligned}. This can also be
+useful if you need to display one very long equation that you need to
+split over several lines and you want the equation number to be
+centered vertically. For example, if you type
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:longeq}
- \begin{split}
+ \begin{aligned}
F(a,b,c,d) &= \int_{a}^{b} \sin^{3}x \cos^{2}x \, dx
+ \int_{c}^{d} \sin^{3}x \cos x \, dx\\
&\quad + \int_{a}^{b} \sin^{2} x \cos^{2} x \, dx + \int_{c}^{d}
\sin x \cos x \, dx
- \end{split}
+ \end{aligned}
\end{equation}
\end{verbatim}
then you'll get
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:longeq}
- \begin{split}

F(a,b,c,d) &= \int_{a}^{b} \sin^{3}x \cos^{2}x \, dx

&\quad + \int_{a}^{b} \sin^{2} x \cos^{2} x \, dx + \int_{c}^{d}
\sin x \cos x \, dx
- \end{split}
+ \end{aligned}
+\end{equation}
+
+The display created by an \texttt{aligned} environment can be used as
+an element of a display. For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{equation*}
+ \left .
+ \begin{aligned}
+ f(x) &= \sin^{2} x\\

+ \qquad \text{A nice collection of functions}
+\end{equation*}
+
+
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------
+\subsubsection{Several centered lines as part of a larger display}
+\label{sec:gathered}
+
+The \texttt{gathered} environment does not create a display of its
+own. Instead, it allows you to have several lines of mathematics,
+each one centered as in the \texttt{gather} environment (see
+section~\ref{sec:gather}), which can then be used inside of a
+displayed mathematics environment. For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{equation}
+ \begin{gathered}
+ x^{2} + y^{2} = z^{2}\\
+ a = b + c
+ \end{gathered}
+ \qquad \text{and, in addition,}\qquad
+ \begin{aligned}
+ A &= B+C\\

+ \end{gathered}
+ \qquad \text{and, in addition,}\qquad
+ \begin{aligned}
+ A &= B+C\\
+ &= D+E
+ \end{aligned}
\end{equation}
+The \texttt{gathered} environment can take the same optional argument
+of \texttt{[t]} or \texttt{[b]} that the \texttt{aligned} argument can
+take (see section~\ref{sec:aligned}) to cause the vertical alignment
+to be on either the top or the bottom line. For example, if you type

+\subsection{More crossing arrows}
+\label{sec:CrossArrow}
+
+In section~\ref{sec:ArUnder} we presented a method of having an arrow
+pass over another arrow by having them cross at an empty node. We
+present here another method of having one arrow pass over another.
+
+To have one arrow appear to cross over another, we create a small gap
+in the second arrow at the spot at which the first arrow will cross.
+We do this by breaking that second arrow with a label, as in
+section~\ref{sec:arbreak}, using the special label \verb"\hole", which
+just leaves an empty hole in the arrow. For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{equation*}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[dr]|{\hole}
+ & {B} \ar[dl]\\
+ {C}
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{equation*}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{equation*}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[dr]|{\hole}
+ & {B} \ar[dl]\\
+ {C}
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{equation*}
+For another example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{equation*}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[dr] \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[r]
+ & {C}\\
+ {D} \ar[urr]|(.33){\hole} \ar[r]
+ & {E}
+ }
+\end{equation*}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{equation*}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[dr] \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[r]
+ & {C}\\
+ {D} \ar[urr]|(.33){\hole} \ar[r]
+ & {E}
+ }
+\end{equation*}
+(see section~\ref{sec:LblArb}). It took some trial and error to
+figure out that \texttt{.33} was the number to use in the arrow with
+the hole, but there's a much better way specify the location of the
+hole: Instead of inserting that number between 0 and 1 that specifies
+how far from the center of the source to the center of the target the
+break should appear, you can specify the place to put the break using
+the notation \verb"!{[node1];[node2]}" to denote the point on the
+arrow at which a straight line from \verb"[node1]" to \verb"[node2]"
+would cross the arrow. (\emph{Note:} This method only works for
+straight line arrows.) That is, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{equation*}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[dr] \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[r]
+ & {C}\\
+ {D} \ar[urr]|!{[u];[r]}{\hole} \ar[r]

+ & {B} \ar[r]
+ & {C}\\
+ {D} \ar[urr]|!{[u];[r]}{\hole} \ar[r]
+ & {E}
+ }
+\end{equation*}
+The position of the hole is specified as \verb"!{[u];[r]}" because the
+arrow with the hole begins at $D$ and, relative to that node, the
+arrow that crosses over goes from the node \verb"[u]" to the node
+\verb"[r]".
+
+For another example, if you type

+\subsection{Making room for large labels}
+\label{sec:labelroom}
+
+Although \Xy-pic automatically leaves enough room for large nodes, it
+ignores the size of the labels on the arrows when constructing the
+diagram. Thus, if you have a particularly large label, it may
+overwrite the nodes if you don't do something to make the diagram
+larger. You can do that either by enlarging the entire diagram (see
+section~\ref{sec:LblEnlrgeDiag}) or by creating a row (or column) all
+of whose nodes are empty and have the arrows span the empty row (or
+column) (see section~\ref{sec:emptynodes}).
+
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------
+\subsubsection{Enlarging the entire diagram}
+\label{sec:LblEnlrgeDiag}
+
+To enlarge the entire diagram, we use the spacing commands described
+in Section~\ref{sec:ChgSpc}. For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A\amalg B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[r]^-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {X} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {P} \ar[d]\\
+ {C \amalg D}
+ \ar[r]_-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {Y} \ar[r]
+ & {Q}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A\amalg B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[r]^-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {X} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {P} \ar[d]\\
+ {C \amalg D}
+ \ar[r]_-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {Y} \ar[r]
+ & {Q}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+but if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix@C=6em{
+ {A\amalg B} \ar[d] \ar[r]^-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {X} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {P} \ar[d]\\
+ {C \amalg D} \ar[r]_-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {Y} \ar[r]
+ & {Q}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+(see Section~\ref{sec:ChgSpc}) then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix@C=6em{
+ {A\amalg B} \ar[d] \ar[r]^-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {X} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {P} \ar[d]\\
+ {C \amalg D} \ar[r]_-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {Y} \ar[r]
+ & {Q}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+If you don't want to have to make the entire diagram larger, you can
+just create a column of empty nodes (see
+Section~\ref{sec:emptynodes}).
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------
+\subsubsection{Creating a column of empty nodes}
+\label{sec:emptynodes}
+
+We continue the discussion of Section~\ref{sec:LblEnlrgeDiag}: Instead
+of enlarging the entire diagram, you can create an additional column
+in between the first two columns and have all the nodes in the new
+column be empty. For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A\amalg B} \ar[d] \ar[rr]^-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ && {X} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {P} \ar[d]\\
+ {C \amalg D} \ar[rr]_-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ && {Y} \ar[r]
+ & {Q}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A\amalg B} \ar[d] \ar[rr]^-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ && {X} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {P} \ar[d]\\
+ {C \amalg D} \ar[rr]_-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ && {Y} \ar[r]
+ & {Q}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+Note that that diagram has four columns, but both of the nodes in the
+second column are empty, and the labelled arrows are created as
+\verb"\ar[rr]". If you'd like to create even more space for that
+large label, you can put an \verb"\hspace" command into one of the
+nodes in the second column. For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A\amalg B} \ar[d] \ar[rr]^-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {\hspace{3em}}
+ & {X} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {P} \ar[d]\\
+ {C \amalg D} \ar[rr]_-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ && {Y} \ar[r]
+ & {Q}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A\amalg B} \ar[d] \ar[rr]^-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ & {\hspace{3em}}
+ & {X} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {P} \ar[d]\\
+ {C \amalg D} \ar[rr]_-{\operatorname{amalgamate}}
+ && {Y} \ar[r]
+ & {Q}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+Note that we only put the \verb"\hspace" command into the first row;
+there's no need to put it into every row.

+\subsection{Specifying both the source and the target of an arrow}
+\label{sec:SrcTrgt}
+
+Up until now, all of our examples of arrows have gone from the current
+node to a node specified in the code for the arrow. It's possible,
+however, to specify both the source and the target of an arrow, rather
+than letting the source be the current node.
+
+To draw an arrow who's source is not at the current node, you type
+\begin{center}
+ \verb"[source];[target]"
+\end{center}
+where you would have typed just \verb"[target]". Since the current
+node is denoted \verb"[]", typing ``\verb"\ar[target]"'' is the same
+as typing ``\verb"\ar[];[target]"''.
+
+For example, if you
+type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A}
+ & {B}\\
+ {C}
+ & {D}
+ \ar^{f}[ul];[u]
+ \ar_{g}[l];[]
+ \ar_{h}[ul];[l]
+ \ar^{k}[u];[]
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A}
+ & {B}\\
+ {C}
+ & {D}
+ \ar^{f}[ul];[u]
+ \ar_{g}[l];[]
+ \ar_{h}[ul];[l]
+ \ar^{k}[u];[]
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+Note that when we drew the arrows the current node was $D$, and so the
+target of, e.g., the arrow labelled $g$ was specified as \verb"[]"
+(which denotes the current node).
+
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------
+\subsection{Text objects}
+\label{sec:TextObj}
+
+You can insert a text object into a diagram by typing
+\begin{center}
+ \verb"*\txt{Some text}"\quad or\quad \verb"*\txt<width>{Some text}"
+\end{center}
+In the first form you create linebreaks with a double backslash
+``\verb"\\"'' and in the second form the lines are broken
+automatically. Text objects by default don't have any blank space
+around them, but you can add a bit of space by typing them as
+\verb"*+\txt{Some text}", or even more space by typing them as
+\verb"*++\txt{Some text}".
+
+For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ *+\txt{Roses are red,\\ Violets are blue.\\
+ This is a contrived example,\\ And the rhyme is bad too.}
+ \ar@{=>}[r]
+ & *\txt<2in>{Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought
+ forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty,
+ and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created
+ equal.}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ *+\txt{Roses are red,\\ Violets are blue.\\
+ This is a contrived example,\\ And the rhyme is bad too.}
+ \ar@{=>}[r]
+ & *\txt<2in>{Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought
+ forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty,
+ and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created
+ equal.}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+We typed that first one as \verb"*+\txt" so that the arrow wouldn't
+start too close to the text.
+
+You can also shift a text object to the left (so that arrows to or
+from the object will go to its right end instead of its center) by
+typing it as
+%
+\verb"*+[l]\txt{Some text}" or to the right (so that arrows to or from
+the object will go to its left end instead of its center) by typing it
+as
+%
+\verb"*+[r]\txt{Some text}". For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ *+[l]\txt{Interior} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & *+[r]\txt{Exterior} \ar[d]\\
+ {A} \ar[r]
+ & {B}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{

+ & *+[r]\txt{Exterior} \ar[d]\\
+ {A} \ar[r]
+ & {B}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+
+Text objects are mostly used for adding annotations to a diagram (see
+section~\ref{sec:Drop}).
+
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------
+\subsection{Arrows off of the grid}
+\label{sec:OffGrid}
+
+It's possible to draw arrows that begin or end at points other than
+nodes. To do this, you specify the point by choosing a node and then
+adding a displacement vector ``\verb"+<Dx,Dy>"'' from that node (where
+\verb"Dx" is the horizontal displacement and \verb"Dy" is the vertical
+displacement). (Although you can use whatever units you like for the
+displacements (e.g., inches (\texttt{in}), centimeters (\texttt{cm}),
+points (\texttt{pt}), etc.), it's a good idea to measure vertical
+distances in \texttt{ex} (roughly the height of an upper case ``X'')
+and horizontal distances in \texttt{em} (roughly the width of an upper
+case ``M''), so that the displacement will be roughly correct even if
+you change font sizes.) For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[d]+<4em,0ex>\\
+ {B}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[d]+<4em,0ex>\\
+ {B}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+since the arrow is pointing to the spot 4em to the right of the $B$.
+
+For another example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A}
+ & {B}\\
+ {C}
+ & {D}
+ \ar[ul]+<-2em,0ex>;[]+<2em,0ex>
+ }

+one up and one to the left of the current node ($D$) and the target as
+being \verb"[]+<2em,0ex>", i.e., 2em to the right of the current node
+($D$).
+
+For an example that combines displacements of source and target along

+\end{displaymath}
+
+Realistic examples of arrows off of the grid can be found in
+section~\ref{sec:Drop}, where we show how to drop objects into a
+diagram at either the source or the target of an arrow.
+
+%--------------------------------------------------------------------
+\subsection{Dropping objects into a diagram; annotations}
+\label{sec:Drop}
+
+You can drop an object at an arbitrary point of a diagram (i.e., not
+necessarily at a node) by drawing an arrow to or from that point (see
+section~\ref{sec:OffGrid}) and dropping the object at one of the ends
+of the arrow. The object can be either mathematics or a text object
+(see section~\ref{sec:TextObj}).
+
+For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[]+<5em,-5ex>*+\txt{This space\\is compact.};[]\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[]+<5em,-5ex>*+\txt{This space\\is compact.};[]\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+Note that the text and the arrow from it was typed by first creating
+the arrow
+\begin{center}
+ \verb"\ar[]+<5em,-5ex>;[]"
+\end{center}
+whose source is displaced from the current node (see
+sections~\ref{sec:SrcTrgt} and \ref{sec:OffGrid}) and whose target is
+the current node, and then dropping the text object (see
+section~\ref{sec:TextObj}) at the source by inserting
+\begin{center}
+ \verb"*+\txt{This space\\is compact.}"
+\end{center}
+immediately after the specification of the source.
+
+Note that the arrows to or from a text object by default go to its
+center, and if a text object is dropped at a specified point by
+default it's the center of the text object that lands at that point.
+Thus, if you're typing a wide text object, you should be sure either
+to leave enough room so that it doesn't overlap other parts of the
+diagram or to shift the text object sideways (as in
+section~\ref{sec:ShiftSide}). For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[]+<5em,-5ex>*+\txt{This topological space is compact.};[]\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[]+<5em,-5ex>*+\txt{This topological space is compact.};[]\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+but if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[]+<10em,-5ex>*+\txt{This topological space is compact.};[]\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+(in which we increased the horizontal displacement to 10em) then
+you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[]+<10em,-5ex>*+\txt{This topological space is compact.};[]\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+and if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[]+<5em,-5ex>*+[r]\txt{This topological space is compact.};[]\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+(in which we typed
+\begin{center}
+ \verb"*+[r]\txt{This topological space is compact.}"
+\end{center}
+to create the text object, i.e., we added ``\verb"[r]"'' to shift the
+text object to the right; see section~\ref{sec:ShiftSide}) then you'll
+get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]
+ & {B} \ar[d]
+ \ar[]+<5em,-5ex>*+[r]\txt{This topological space is compact.};[]\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+
+If you want to drop an object onto a spot other than at a node without
+printing an arrow to or from that spot, you can draw an invisible
+arrow going to that spot and drop the object at the end of the
+invisible arrow. For example, if you type
+\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]_{f}
+ & {B} \ar[d]^{g}
+ \ar@{}[]+<8em,-4ex>*+\txt{Both $f$ and $g$\\are fibrations.}\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+\end{verbatim}
+then you'll get
+\begin{displaymath}
+ \xymatrix{
+ {A} \ar[r] \ar[d]_{f}
+ & {B} \ar[d]^{g}
+ \ar@{}[]+<8em,-4ex>*+\txt{Both $f$ and $g$\\are fibrations.}\\
+ {C} \ar[r]
+ & {D}
+ }
+\end{displaymath}
+The arrow to the text object is invisible because we typed it starting
+with \verb"\ar@{}" (see section~\ref{sec:arstyle} and
+Diagram~\ref{diag:CentEq}). After that, we typed
+\begin{center}
+ \verb"[]+<8em,-4ex>*+\txt{Both $f$ and $g$\\are fibrations.}"
+\end{center}
+so that the arrow would go to the point 8em to the right and 4ex below
+the current node, and we dropped the text object at that point.
