As any chemist knows, there are at least four places to put things like superscripts-- up-right (a superscript) down-right (a subscript) up-left down-left as well as centered above centered below --and not interfere with the normal horizontal placement of operators. Perhaps one of these other positions would be better. In this case, I suspect a subscript instead of a superscript would be fine. --ms Marc LeBrun wrote:

Alas, a problem with all these funny superscripts is notating their vector spaces. For pairs Z^2 looks OK, but (Z^(>=1))^2?! And if you don't carefully isolate the 2 it might be read as Z^(>=12)!
But this is getting unfun. I may just give up and settle for U! Thanks!
