\section{Introduction}

is a paragraph with some text at the start of the article. This is just a sample but it has some mathematics like $x=y^2 +A_\mathrm{eff}$ and something else like $\hat{V}_\mathsf{L} = \sum_j \mathbf{r}_j^k$. Then it just starts repeating itself. This is a paragraph with some text at the start of the article. Then it just starts repeating itself. This is just a sample but it has some mathematics like $\chi = a_{d} \xi \zeta/\lambda = m_\mathrm{eff}d^2/(\hbar^2 \lambda)$ and something else like $r=|\vec{x}_A-\vec{x}_B|=\sqrt{(x_A-x_B)^2+(y_A-y_B)^2}$ or $d \mathopen{}\left( p+A(t) \right)\mathclose{} ^*$ . Then it just starts repeating itself.
This is another paragraph with more text just to show paragraph breaks. This is really just filler text but to be honest including a whole paragraph of Lorem Ipsum here seemed a bit too much. So instead here is a bit of filler text to flesh out the paragraph a bit.
\section{Here are some maths}
Here is a paragraph with a couple of citations: a paper \cite{Schulman-phys-rev}, a book \cite{Schulman}, and a miscellaneous item~\cite{TomScott}.
\lipsum[4]
Here's an equation with a label, \eqref{first-equation} and there's more equations further down. So, we have
\begin{equation}
V(\mathbf{x}_A,\mathbf{x}_B)=V(\vec{x}_A,\vec{x}_B)=d^2\frac{r^2-2\lambda^2}{(r^2+\lambda^2)^{5/2}},
\label{first-equation}
\end{equation}
being $d$ a letter, $\lambda$ a gathingammy, $r$ a letter in $r=|\vec{x}_A-\vec{x}_B|=\sqrt{(x_A-x_B)^2+(y_A-y_B)^2}$, with $A$, $B$ labels. Moreover $\Lambda=\lambda/a$, and $\chi = a_{d}/\lambda = m_{eff}d^2/(\hbar^2 \lambda)$, with $m_\mathrm{eff}=\hbar^2/2ta^2$, and $t$, are more maths expressions. So are $k=\sqrt{k_x^2+k_y^2}$ and $V_\mathrm{latt}(\vec r)= V_0\left(\sin^2(k_x x)+ \sin^2(k_y y)\right))$, and a displayed equation is
\begin{equation}
\left(\hat{T}_A+\hat{T}_B+{\hat V}(\vec{x}_A,\vec{x}_B)\right)\Phi(\vec{x}_A,\vec{x}_B)=E\Phi(\vec{x}_A,\vec{x}_B).
\end{equation}
\lipsum[1]
\begin{align}
\partial_t \hat S(t,z) & = i\sqrt{d} \frac{\Gamma}{\Delta}\left( \Omega_+ \hat{\mathcal E}_+ + \Omega_- \hat{\mathcal E}_- \right) - \gamma \hat S \\
\partial_z \hat{\mathcal E}_+ (t,z) & = i \sqrt{d} \frac{\Omega_+}{\Delta} \hat{S}
\end{align}

\lipsum[1-3]
Other displayed equations are
\begin{equation}
(\vec{\xi}_{\vec{K}}\cdot\vec{\hat{T}}_D+V(\vec{r}))\psi(\vec{r})=E\psi(\vec{r}),
\end{equation}
where $\vec{\xi }_{\vec{K}}=-2t(\cos(K_x a/2),\cos(K_y a/2))$ is some object, and $\vec{\hat{I}}\cdot\vec{\hat{T}}_D\psi(\vec{r})=\sum_{i=x,y}\left(\psi(\vec{r}+\vec{\delta}_i)+\psi(\vec{r}-\vec{\delta}_i)\right)$, where $\vec{\delta}_i=a\hat{e}_{i}$, and also
\begin{equation}
\psi(\vec{r})=\frac{1}{N_x N_y}\sum_{\vec{q}}\psi(\vec{q})e^{i\vec{q}\cdot\vec{r}}.
\end{equation}
Here's a little bit of text to round out the paragraph after the equation and (probably) round out the page, so this needs to be a couple of lines long.
Here some text: \lipsum[7]
Some text, then some more equations: these ones are
$$
E_{\vec{K},\vec{q}}=-4t\left(\cos(K_xa/2)\cos(q_xa)+\cos(K_ya/2)\cos(q_ya)\right)
$$
and
\begin{equation}
(E-E_{\vec{K},\vec{q}})\psi(\vec{q})=\sum_{\vec{q'}}V(\vec{q}-\vec{q'})\psi(\vec{q'}).
\end{equation}
To round out the paper, we now include a bunch of Lorem Ipsum paragraphs, some more math, more filler text, and call it a day.
