Hi,
I am trying to use lyx to write a paper, but I have
met a problem with nesting the enumerate environment
within a theorem. I want to get out of the enumerate
environment without getting out of the theorem, could
you tell me how to do it? This is very common to nest
several lists type conditions and conclusions inside a
mathematics environment like proposition, theorem,
lemma, definition, corollary etc.. Thanks.

Start a paragraph by selecting the Theorem environment and begin the theorem. When you reach the enumeration, start a new paragraph, select the enumerate environment and increase the depth (S-M-Right, or use the button on the toolbar that looks like an arrow pointing into the middle of a paragraph). At the end of the enumeration, hit enter and select the theorem environment again. It should resume your current theorem, rather than starting a new one.

The key is to make sure that the enumeration is embedded in the theorem by incrementing its depth.
