When I plot, I use

Frame -> True

I would like all ticks on the frame axes to disappear and remain only with two ticks, say, 0.1 on the x-axis and 0.5 on the y axis. Also, I would also like to change their labels from the value 0.1 to "x1" and from the value 0.5 to "y1"

Anyone have an idea what to write in

FrameTicks -> ?????

to get what I describe.

  • $\begingroup$ The documentation says, "For each edge, tick marks can be specified as described in the notes for Ticks." Expand the "Details" section to get a complete description. $\endgroup$

Something like this, maybe?

Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, π},
  Frame -> True,
  FrameTicks -> {{{{.5, "y1"}}, None}, {{{1., "x1"}}, None}}]

plot

The important thing to keep in mind about specifying frame ticks is that they are given in the order

FrameTicks -> {{leftYTicks, rightYTicks}, {bottomXTicks, topXTicks}}
