Remove the comma before " and " in the author list, i.e.

Hi,
The workaround works. And I'm also glad it'll be fixed in the next release.

Thank you for your help!

And, for the record, the fix should be in 2.2.3.

I'd forgotten I'd held it back from 2.2.2, since it seemed so risky. I'm
glad it's
not a new incarnation of the bug.

[Wolfgang Engelmann]

Could you supply the references as you have it in your reference list?

You should have something like

Mian, Atif and Sufi, Amir

i.e. no comma after Atif

Fwd: Lyx PDF Error w/ Bib File

[Christos Makridis]

Hey Lyx Community,

Think I sent my original email to the wrong community address. Thank you in
advance!

Hey Lyx Community,

First time emailing the general list, so apologies if there's something I
am overlooking. I am a PhD candidate at Stanford working in economics and a
big fan of Lyx because of how easy it makes editing while still retaining
the flexibility and beautiful typesetting inherent in Latex.

The recent 2.2.2 version seems to produce a problem with my .bib file. In
particular, when I PDF my document, it gives a series of errors (see below).

[image: Inline image 1]

I have spent quite a bit of time diagnosing the errors. First, I want to
note in case it is not clear that these errors never arise in previous
versions -- and I am still using 1.2.2 now because this newer version isn't
working for me. Second, it appears that one of the problems is when the
word "and" is in the citation; then double braces can partially remedy the
problem. I am not sure about the first three errors that came up though.

Just to give an example of one of my citations, see below.

@article{JaimovichSiu:highskilled,

title={{High-skilled immigration, STEM employment, and non-routine-biased
technical change}},

author={Jaimovich, Nir, and Siu, Henry E.},

journal={NBER working paper},

year={2017},

volume={},

number={},

pages={},

}


Does anyone know what the source of the problem is and/or a remedy?


Thank you for your time and interest!

The right command is operatorname, I think. LyX is not yet able to display it 
properly , though.

On "operatorname" -- this is somewhat fragile, I guess. I assume I have 
AMSMath. If I do the following in math or display math...: type "\operatorname" 
followed by an opening brace "{", LyX adds the closing brace. Then type the 
operator name inside of the braces to have "\operatorname{sgn}" where the 
cursor now is just after the "n" and before the closing brace. Then hit "space" 
to move out of the brace. The math still looks like "\operatorname{sgn}". 
However, if I go out of the math/display math *and* have set up LyX with math 
preview, then it looks ok. But a slightest mistake causes an erroneous 
preview...

Yes, that works. At least in preview...

...or \mathrm ? But this gives "wrong" distance in the expressions, I think.

Assuming that you are loading AMSMath, try adding 
\DeclareMathOperator{\sgn}{sgn} to the document preamble and then use \sgn in 
math insets.
