What's the correct way?

  • you are right. The English literature I scanned it was written without a hyphen. BUT: Every German book I checked used the hyphen. Unfortunately with bad spacing... take a look

I think you have two main options:



  • Don't use a hyphen. (This was already mentioned by @Bernard in an earlier comment.)


  • Write $ntimesn$. This converts the math-status of times from relational-operator atom to ordinary atom, resulting in no extra whitespace around $times$.
