Thanks for the suggestion. Surprisingly, LaTeX does compile; with a
bunch of errors in the .log, to be sure, but none of them fatal.
How can I find out what the compiler was doing when it stumbled upon
the things that LyX finds offending? The part of the .log file that
seems relevant is:
[168] [169]

! Extra }, or forgotten $.
\maththreesuperior ->{^3}

! Missing } inserted.

Is any of this indicative of which part of which file the compiler
was working on?
Thanks again,

Typically LaTeX will get confused, print out something that gives you
a hint of where it went off a cliff, and then print a lot of messages
like what you are seeing here. So I would suggest looking for the
first occurance of an error out of LaTeX and see if you can determine
what part of the document it was processing when that error occurred.
Given that the error involves "$", I would bet that you either have an
unterminated math command or you have tried to use a math command
without enclosing it in the proper "$". You might also look for mis-
matched braces {}.
