I am trying to define a new operator in Quarto presentation (revealjs), but I either fail or it adds a white empty slide. Here are two examples:

Fails

This code fails in the sense that \N is not understood and litteraly written.

---
title: "Test title"
date: today
author: Test author
date-format: iso
keep-tex: true
format:
  revealjs: default
---

::: {.content-hidden}

\newcommand{\test}{f_{\text{test}}}
\renewcommand{\phi}{\varphi}

$$
\DeclareMathOperator{\N}{\mathcal{N}}
$$

:::

## First slide

$$
\test = \N(\phi)
$$

Works but add a white slide

This time \N is written because the math operator is declared in the html (see after qmd block code for the html output)

---
title: "Test title"
date: today
author: Test author
date-format: iso
keep-tex: true
format:
  revealjs: default
---

::: {.hidden}

\newcommand{\test}{f_{\text{test}}}
\renewcommand{\phi}{\varphi}

$$
\DeclareMathOperator{\N}{\mathcal{N}}
$$

:::

## First slide

$$
\test = \N(\phi)
$$

Opening the html output file, I found:

<section class="slide level2">

<div class="hidden">
<p><span class="math display">\[
\DeclareMathOperator{\N}{\mathcal{N}}
\]</span></p>
</div>
</section>

So, how to add latex macros in quarto revealjs? I also tried to hide the slide itself rather than the content, as shown in this post, but it did not work out.

This is because if you put anything before the first header, it will be regarded as content which has to be put on a slide. The solution is that you define things afterwards:

---
title: "Test title"
date: today
author: Test author
date-format: iso
keep-tex: true
format:
  revealjs: default
---

## First slide

::: {.hidden}

\newcommand{\test}{f_{\text{test}}}
\renewcommand{\phi}{\varphi}

$$
\DeclareMathOperator{\N}{\mathcal{N}}
$$

:::

$$
\test = \N(\phi)
$$
