Problems with align* environment
I had some problems while trying to align some equations in an align*
environment. The output should be something like this:
As you can see, all the +
symbols are vertically aligned, and so are the letters after them. I tried with an align*
environment to get a similar result, but I was not able to align the symbols nor the letters. Here is my code and output:
begin{align*}
a &+2alpha az &+3alpha^2 az^2 &+4alpha^3az^3 &+5alpha^4az^4 +mbox{ecc.}\
&+bz &+2alpha bz^2 &+3alpha^2 bz^3 &+4alpha^4bz^4,
end{align*}
Is there a manner to get a more elegant result, without all those white spaces inside the sums? Thank you!

align gives alternating left and right alignment, but here I think you want centering so
documentclass{article}
usepackage{array,amsmath}
begin{document}
[
begin{array}{*{20}{@{}>{{}}c<{{}}@{}}}
a &+&2alpha az &+&3alpha^2 az^2 &+&4alpha^3az^3 &+&5alpha^4az^4 &+&mbox{ecc.}\
&+&bz &+&2alpha bz^2 &+&3alpha^2 bz^3 &+&4alpha^4bz^4,
end{array}
]
end{document}
