Produces: \vb command

Rewrite patterns#

Each example shows this rule applied in isolation. A complete normalization profile may make additional changes.

Before

\vectorbold{F}=m\vb{a}

After this rule

\vb{F}=m\vb{a}

Rendering verified with the declared packages.

Before

\vectorbold*{\alpha}+\vectorbold*{p}

After this rule

\vb*{\alpha}+\vb*{p}

Rendering verified with the declared packages.

physics/derivative-to-dv Collapse derivative to the compact dv command.
physics/functional-derivative-to-fdv Collapse long functional derivative names to the fdv command.
physics/partial-derivative-to-pdv Collapse long partial derivative names to the pdv command.
physics/vectorarrow-to-va Collapse vectorarrow to the short va helper.
physics/vectorunit-to-vu Collapse vectorunit to the short vu helper.
physics/dv-to-frac-d Expand dv forms to explicit d-based derivative fractions.
physics/fdv-to-frac-delta Expand fdv forms to explicit delta-based derivative fractions.
physics/pdv-to-frac-partial Expand pdv forms to explicit partial-derivative fractions.
physics/va-to-vec-mathbf Canonicalize va to an explicit vec-wrapped mathbf form.
physics/vb-to-mathbf Canonicalize vb to an explicit mathbf wrapper.
physics/vu-to-hat-mathbf Canonicalize vu to an explicit hat-wrapped mathbf form.

Star is preserved on the short alias because physics VectorBold uses it for bold-italic styling and for lowercase Greek handling.
