these names are not part of the classes, they belong to
theorem.sty - package and/or to amsthm.sty - package.
there is a way to get what you want, but it's a little bit
complicated.
first let me say, that there is a historical problem between
lyx and amsbook-class. lyx defines the thm-environment as
a standard with name "Theorem", so there is no easy way
to change this (from my point of view).
1. you can patch the lyx-layout-file amsmath.inc,
changing the names for the different theorems is
possible, or alternativ
2. in line 78 of ~/.lyx/layouts/amsbook.layout begins
a preamble. insert as line 79, before the other
theorem-commands
\usepackage[amsthm]{ntheorem}
(i attached this file, if you are in trouble.)
with this command you are able to redefine ALL (!)
theorem-environments, which was not possible with
the old packages! if this could work, save the
also attached latex file ntheorem.sty in your
tex-homedirectory, often ~/.TeX/ or, if you are
working on your own machine, in
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/ntheorem/
(save the old ntheorem.sty, if there is one)
now you are able to redefine all theorem-styles.
at the beginning of your document write:
\renewtheorem{thm}{Teorema}[section]
\renewtheorem{cor}{Corollario}[section]
that's all ... ;-)
thm and cor are the lyx-specific names. here comes the
whole list:
\newtheorem{thm}{Theorem}
\newtheorem{cor}{Corollary}
\newtheorem{lem}{Lemma}
\newtheorem{prop}{Proposition}
\newtheorem{conjecture}{Conjecture}
\newtheorem{criterion}{Criterion}
\newtheorem{algorithm}{Algorithm}
\newtheorem{fact}{Fact}
\newtheorem{ax}{Axiom}
\newtheorem{defn}{Definition}
\newtheorem{example}{Example}
\newtheorem{condition}{Condition}
\newtheorem{problem}{Problem}
\newtheorem{xca}{Exercise}
\newtheorem{rem}{Remark}
\newtheorem{claim}{Claim}
\newtheorem{note}{Note}
\newtheorem{notation}{Notation}
\newtheorem{summary}{Summary}
\newtheorem{acknowledgement}{Acknowledgement}
\newtheorem{case}{Case}
\newtheorem{conclusion}{Conclusion}
all defined with the ams-classes.
