It is worth observing that reStructuredText is a markup format designed
for widespread use, rendering to many different output formats.

Not all the output formats Docutils targets are capable of rendering
complex mathematical expressions.

With that said, the “math” interpreted text role and directive
<URL:http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/ref/rst/roles.html#math>
<URL:http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/ref/rst/directives.html#math>
are available in Docutils version 0.8 and later::

    The input format is LaTeX math syntax[1] with support for Unicode
    symbols […]

    Support is limited to a subset of LaTeX math by the conversion
    required for many output formats.

I hope that helps.
