Thanks for your answer...

Following your instructions, I do this:

[theorems-ams.inc]
Style Corollary
...
        LabelCounter          coroll
...
        Preamble
          \theoremstyle{plain}
          \newtheorem{cor}{Corollaire}
        EndPreamble
End

[theorems-ams.module]
Counter coroll
End

Try putting that right before the Corollary definition in theorems-ams.inc.

Did you also change the LabelString in Corollary?

If that doesn't work, post your style files and I'll have a look.

Now, in the LyX display, the counter for Corollary is different from
"Theorem" but it is not incremented when I add another corollary:

Theorem 1.1
Corollary 1.1
Theorem 2.1
Corollary 1.1
Etc

Thanks in advance...

I would like to know if there is a solution to customize the theorem AMS
numbering inside LyX (by default, LyX displays (on the screen): Theorem 1,
Lemma  2, Corolary 3 etc) for having the same numbering than in the LaTeX
output?

I'm not sure I understand. The LyX numbering does match the output in my case. Both are as you described. Is the question how to get both as you next put it?

By example, something like that: Theorem 1, Lemma 1, Corolary 1, Theorem 2
etc and, with the "theorems (by section)" enabled: Theorem 1.1, Lemma 1.1,
Corolary 1.1, Theorem 2.1, Lemma 2.1 etc.

To get this sort of thing, you need to copy the existing theorem layout material and replace things like:

      \newtheorem{cor}[thm]{Corollary}
with things like:
      \newtheorem{cor}{Corollary}
The LyX counter can then be defined roughly as follows:
    Counter corollary
    EndCounter
And then change to use this counter in the Corollary section.
