<p>I've decided to start a wiki to do collaborative mathematics. However I don't have access or control over a server. So I need a wiki farm. I've tried out pbworks and wikidot, but their latex support is not as straightfoward as say wordpress. </p> <p>Do you have a suggestion of which wiki farm to use?</p>

<p>You have <a href="http://www.wikia.com/Wikia" rel="nofollow">Wikia</a> which uses the same software as Wikipedia. It's a complete and total latex support (i.e. I doubt you can add and install new packages) but you have a pretty good support for formulae, just like in Wikipedia.</p> <p>I think that if you want something that has complete latex support (i.e. you can upload and compile .tex source files) you'd have to hack something of your own.</p> <p>For further comparison: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_wiki_farms" rel="nofollow">Comparison of wiki farms</a></p>

<p>I was investigating the same question recently myself. This is what I came up with. </p> <p>The best support for TeX input to my knowledge has Noösphere which is the engine behind PlanetMath</p> <p><a href="http://planetmath.org/" rel="nofollow">http://planetmath.org/</a></p> <p>I however do not believe that you can install Noösphere on your own-servers because it is proprietary application. Please somebody correct me if I am wrong. </p> <p>On the another hand I really like PmWiki</p> <p><a href="http://www.pmwiki.org/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pmwiki.org/</a></p> <p>which also has support for TeX input.</p> <p><a href="http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/TrueLatex" rel="nofollow">http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/TrueLatex</a></p> <p>There is another feature of PmWiki that I really like. You can store your date in plain text files. Most but not all Wikis do require some kind of database.</p>

<p>If you're looking for a wiki that can handle LaTeX-style equations, then you should take a look at instiki. Not only does it display mathematics properly, it can also export pages to LaTeX.</p> <p><a href="http://www.instiki.org/show/HomePage" rel="nofollow">http://www.instiki.org/show/HomePage</a></p>
