Hello Julio, i do not know if i've understood your question. Anyway, probably you can be interested one of this...
First solution: press CTRL+L entering in ERT mode and then: \begin{eqnarray} d &=& a + b, if a>1 \nonumber \\ &=& a-b, if a<1 \nonumber \\ &=&0, if a=1 \nonumber \end{eqnarray} Second solution (i think better for you): press CTRL+L entering in ERT mode and then: $$ d = \left\{ \begin{array}{rl} a+b &\mbox{ if a>1} \\ a-b &\mbox{ if a<1} \\ 0 &\mbox{ if a=1} \\ \end{array} \right. $$ I hope it'll be usefull for you.
