Yep XWiki is a very good wiki but also a platform to develop on new
applications (applications here
http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/) using scripting
languages (groovy, velocity) more info
here<http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SecondGenerationWiki>
,
of course the raison d'etre of XWiki or wikis in general is collaborative
editing/working

2) I need LaTeX support is it available?

LaTex is present in idea/proposal page
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Idea/ I don't know if LaTeX
support is present in XWiki.

You can create a new menu item right-clicking on menu (Applications) -> Edit
menus -> New Item ->
now you should give a name, indicate the script you should exec, optionally
adding a comment if you like.
Here there's a screenshot (Italian) ->

No worries, you're welcome! Feel free to ask :-)
There's also an irc channel on freenode at #xwiki

Happy XWiki
