Here is an inlined version for you to experiment with:

$$\textstyle \int_{c} (\gamma'\cdot{}\gamma)_{c,c} =
  \left[\int_{c} \gamma'_{c,c}\right] \circ
  \left[\int_{c} \gamma _{c,c}\right]$$

With your Pandoc command, LaTeXMathML is used to translate LaTeX math
syntax into MathML.  (Note that neither Pandoc nor LaTeX is not doing any
translation or rendering itself.)  LaTeXMathML does not seem to support
the \limits command (which places limits above and below the integral
symbol), so I removed such commands.

I am attaching a (trimmed) screenshot.  [Attachment Removed]

LaTeXMathML causes equations to be rendered in separate blocks because it
renders MathML within tables.  I tried the following CSS rule to make the
equations inline:

    .LaTeX table { display: inline; }

It works to some degree, but the vertical alignment of each equation would
need to be tweaked.  HTML+MathML sure is not LaTeX! ;)
