Yes, I found that to format a thesis correctly, I had to use koma-script.
However, I found that to have theorems & lemmas etc I had to use AMS article.
My current solution is to have a Koma-script file that inputs the chapters
with theorems in AMS book format.
However this generates lots of errors unless I put the lines below in my
preamble, and I haven't found a way of getting unnumbered theorems to work.
Is there a better way?
