I'm trying to use \cdot
as a dummy for a function argument in the following expression
C(\cdot\mid\mathcal{F}_{t-1})
However, the above produces more space to the right of the dot than to the left. I'd like the spacing to be symmetrical. I've tried using {}
on either side but haven't been able to get the desired result.

Since you want to use the blank next either between an opening atom (the open parenthesis) and a relation atom (
\mid
) or between a relation atom and a closing atom, you can define\blank
to be a relation symbol:The trick is that TeX doesn't add space in cases
or
