[Tex/LaTex] Creating Bold Equations in align Environment

equationsformatting

Suppose I have a series of equations that I want aligned using the align environment, but I want the last equation to be bold. When I use \pmb to make the equation bold, the & symbol isn't recognized inside the \pmb command and throws an error.

How could I make the last equation bold and keep it aligned with the previous equations? A code example is below. I have tried using both the \bm and \boldmath packages (mentioned here), and neither one works. (The \bm actually destroys the fraction). I'm using ShareLatex, and the equation is in a Beamer document. Code snippet:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}

\begin{frame}{Title}
\begin{align*}
0 &\leq 2 \sigma - (k+2) \\
\frac{k}{2} + 1 &\leq \sigma
\end{align*}
\end{frame}

\end{document}

\documentclass{beamer}

\usepackage{amsmath}

\begin{document}
\begin{frame}{Title}
\begin{align*}
0 &\leq 2 \sigma - (k+2) \\
\boldsymbol{\frac{k}{2} + 1 }&\boldsymbol{\leq \sigma}
\end{align*}
\end{frame}
\end{document}

Not too elegant ... but works.

Since you want a cheat sheet, I'd recommend the extract package. With a slightly different MWE:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[
  active,
  header=false,
  copydocumentclass=true,
  generate=\jobname-Cheatsheet,
  extract-env={equation},
  extract-cmdline={synopsis},
  ]{extract} % http://ctan.org/pkg/extract
\begin{extract*}
% Items executed in both the main and extracted document
% (extract manual, section 5.1)
\usepackage{amsmath}
\end{extract*}
\begin{extract}
% Items executed only in extracted document
\def\synopsis#1{#1}
\end{extract}
\def\synopsis#1{}
\begin{document}
First Euler observed that
\synopsis{Euler's equation tying together the five fundamental constants of mathematics}%
\begin{equation}
1 + e^{i \Pi} = 0.
\end{equation}

Then, Gauss discovered the normal distribution:
\synopsis{Normal distribution}%
\begin{equation}
P(x) = \frac{1}{{\sigma \sqrt {2\pi } }}e^{{{ - \left( {x - \mu } \right)^2 } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{ - \left( {x - \mu } \right)^2 } {2\sigma ^2 }}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {2\sigma ^2 }}}
\end{equation}

Finally, Einstein proclaimed: 
\synopsis{Equivalence of mass and energy}%
\begin{equation}
E = m C^2
\end{equation}
\end{document}

you get an original document of:

and an extracted document of:

\documentclass{article}
% Items executed in both the main and extracted document
% (extract manual, section 5.1)
\usepackage{amsmath}
% Items executed only in extracted document
\def\synopsis#1{#1}

\begin{document}

\synopsis{Euler's equation tying together the five fundamental constants of mathematics}%

\begin{equation}
1 + e^{i \Pi} = 0.
\end{equation}

\synopsis{Normal distribution}%

\begin{equation}
P(x) = \frac{1}{{\sigma \sqrt {2\pi } }}e^{{{ - \left( {x - \mu } \right)^2 } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{ - \left( {x - \mu } \right)^2 } {2\sigma ^2 }}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {2\sigma ^2 }}}
\end{equation}

\synopsis{Equivalence of mass and energy}%

\begin{equation}
E = m C^2
\end{equation}

\end{document}

and:

This also works with your original \caption command.

I think flalign* and \intertext{} are very good for you.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
\begin{flalign*}
& & T_{Loop Filter}(s)&=K_{p}+\frac{K_{i}}{s} & & \\
\intertext{The overall transfer function of given PLL can be given as}
& & \frac{{\phi}_{c}(s)}{{\phi}(s)}&=\frac{T_{Loop Filter}(s)*\frac{1}{s}}{1+\frac{T_{Loop Filter}}(s)*\frac{1}{s}} & & \\
& & \frac{\phi_{c}(s)}{\phi(s)}&=\frac{K_{p}(s)+K_{i}}{s^{2}+K_{p}(s)+K_{i}} & & 
\intertext{In general transfer function for a second order closed loop control system is given as}
& & T_{second order}&=\frac{{\omega}^2+{2{\delta}}{\omega}s}{s_{2}+2{\delta}{\omega}s+{\omega}^{2}} & & \\
& \rlap{\text{On comparing}} & {\omega}&={sqrt{K_i}}  {\delta}=\frac{K_p}{2\sqrt{K_{i}}} & &
\end{flalign*}
\end{document}
