Abstract
The query algorithms in search engines use indexing, contextual analysis and ontologies, among other techniques, for text search. However, they do not use equations due to their writing complexity. NOMAT is a prototype of mathematical expression search engine that seeks information both in thesaurus and internet, using ontological tool for filtering and contextualizing information and LaTeX editor for the symbols in these expressions. This search engine was created to support mathematical research. Compared to other Internet search engines, NOMAT does not require prior knowledge of LaTeX, because has an editing tool which enables writing directly the symbols that make up the mathematical expression of interest. The results obtained were accurate and contextualized, compared to other commercial and no-commercial search engines.
