Christopher,

You can use the Notations package, or you can use Ted Ersek's
SubscriptSymbols package from MathSource at the WRI site. Ted's package uses
the Notation package and does all the setup for you so makes it easier.

Is there a way to use subscriptewd variable names in functions?

I have tried

f[Subscript[u,1]_]:=Subscript[u,1]^2

but I am not able to make this work.

Any tip would be highly appreciated as I have a code that generates a high
number of functions using Subscript[u,1]->Subscript[u,n] as variables.
