When I do
\usepackage{chngcntr}
\counterwithin{definition}{subsection}
in the preamble of Lyx, it tells me definition is not a counter. I assume, that e.g. 
propositions or  definitions have a "counter variable".

But how do I get their names?

Kind regards,

All the theorem-like environments use the counter thm.

An alternative to the chngcntr package is to create a module to do this. In LyX's layouts directory, you should have theorems-sec.module. Copy it to your local layouts directory with the name theorems-subsec.module. Open it with a plain text editor, change "section" to "subsection" in lines 1, 3, 14 and 20 and save that. Reconfigure and restart LyX. In your document, go to Document > Settings > Modules and load either Theorems or Theorems (AMS), followed by the new Theorems (By Subsection) module. That should do it.
