That's the way it should be if Mathjax is enabled (which it is by
default): Mathjax should then interpret that and print out a nicely
formatted equation when you view it in the browser. *However*, Mathjax
has a limitation with "<": one workaround is to surround the < with
spaces:
\[ w_j = \nu_j \prod_{l < j} (1-\nu_l), \]
