Numbered exercises within a section with ams-book
Thanks, Paul. The additions work to number exercises within sections.
I still find one strange thing: I cannot have one exercise directly
following another. Lyx want to make them be one combined exercise. I
found the obvious workabound of putting a standard paragraph in between
with non-breaking space, but that throws off the spacing. I also found
that if I nest each successive problem one more level, I get
consecutively numbered exercises and everything looks fine! I guess
that works as long as I do not want numbered lists within the problems
Isn't there something more direct?
Thanks

better, start again from 1 in each chapter or maybe section.
Something viewable easily in LyX would be good, though I am willing

Help appreciated.

If you put the following in the document preamble, exercises should be
numbered within sections (but I think with the section number included):
\newtheorem{xcc}{Exercise}[section]
\renewcommand{\xca}{\xcc}
