>>I can get the left hand side, the one sided bracket and the 3x1 dimensional

>>positions I don't get any spacing between what comes before "if" and after.
>>In other words, I don't know how to control the spacing.  I want the three 
>>"if's" to line up on top of each other.

Ctrl-space  in Lyx mathed or \, in LateX (small space)
\quad in mathed or Latex (big space)
