Just add double quotes around the string and replace each backslash with a double backslash:
^\markup{\bold \large "$\\frac{1}{2}$CIII" }

Lilypond 2.2.5 on Mac OS X 10.3.4
Hello. I am trying make up an indication for Classic Guitar Barre and half-barre indications. For the full barre I am using: \markup { \bold \large { C } } and for half-barre: \markup { \bold \large { 1/2C } }. These work OK but I would like to type-set the fraction like a mathematical 1/2 instead of a text one. I have tried \markup { \bold \large { \\$\frac{1}{2}$CIII } } and other variations but none seem to work. Could someone tell me how this might be done? Thanks.
