<p>The MathJax Hub, <cite>MathJax.Hub</cite>, is the main control structure for
MathJax.  It is where input and output <a class="reference internal" href="../glossary.html#term-jax"><em class="xref std std-term">jax</em></a> are tied together,
and it is what handles processing of the MathJax <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">&lt;script&gt;</span></tt> tags.
Processing of the mathematics on the page may require external files
to be loaded (when the mathematics includes less common functionality,
for example, that is defined in an extension file), and since file
loading is asynchronous, a number of the methods below may return
before their actions are completed.  For this reason, they include
callback functions that are called when the action completes.  These
can be used to synchronize actions that require the mathematics to be
completed before those action occur. See the <a class="reference internal" href="../callbacks.html#using-callbacks"><em>Using Callbacks</em></a> documentation for more details.</p>
