the result of
K.< alpha,b > = FreeAlgebra(SR)
latex(alpha*b)is
\alphabwithout a space between \alpha and b.
Is it a bug?
('Sage Version 5.8, Release Date: 2013-03-15' on osx 10.6.8)
in my opinion, this problem can be solved in a clean way by replacing the line 2510 in sage/misc/latex.py
...
2509 elif len(a) == 1:
2510 return a
2511 elif is_fname is True:
...with
...
2509 elif len(a) == 1:
2510 return '{%s}'%a
2511 elif is_fname is True:
...actually I get a far better result with
...
2505 if a in common_varnames:
2506 return '{\\,\\%s}'%a
2507 elif len(a) == 0:
2508 return ''
2509 elif len(a) == 1:
2510 return '{\\,%s}'%a
2511 elif is_fname is True:
2512 return '{\\,\\rm %s}'%a
2513 else:
2514 return '\\,\\mathit{%s}'%a
...Would you consider using raw strings, eg r'{\,\%s}' instead of '{\\,\\%s}'. Makes things clearer.

Yuck, this needs work. I couldn't even find a good workaround. You can try using `repr_lincomb` some to see what you get, but I wasn't able to get this to work as we would desire. See http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/14509
