If the character you used in LyX is the same as here:
Character 'ˆ' (710, 0x2C6)
02C6 MODIFIER LETTER CIRCUMFLEX ACCENT
it is because it is not the ASCII-circumflex
Character '^' (94, 0x5E)
005E CIRCUMFLEX ACCENT
and hence an unknown command.

Thank you, Günter. That's the problem. I formed the circumflex by
doing option-i on a Mac keyboard, and this apparently produces
character (710, 0x2C6), according to
