accomplish this.  See attached.

Try using a { delimiter (in LaTeX: \left{ \right. ) along with an array to

Thanks, James, but you solution stills contains asymmetric distances
between each system and the equivalence symbol. Can it be still
improved?

You could insert a \, (small space) after the arrow.  See attached.
