Note, that amsmath has to be loaded before ntheorem since the definitions
have to be overwritten.
3.2.2 amsthm
amsthm.styconflicts with thedefinition of theorem layouts intheorem.sty,
some features of amsthm.sty have been incorporated into option [amsthm]
which has to be used instead of \usepackage{amsthm}.
The option provides theoremstyles plain, definition, and remark, and a
proof environment as in amsthm.sty.
The \newtheorem*command is defined even without this option. Note that
\newtheorem* always switches to the nonumbered version of the current
theoremstyle which thus must be defined.
Thecommand\newtheoremstyleis not taken over fromamsthm.sty. Also,
\swapnumbers is not implemented. Here, the user has to express his definitions
by the \newtheoremstyle command provided by ntheorem.sty,
including the use of \theoremheaderfontand \theorembodyfont. The options
[amsthm] and [standard] are in conflict since they both define an
environment proof.
Thus, we recommend not to use amsthm, since the features for defining
theorem-like environments in ntheorem.sty—following theorem.sty—
seem to be more intuitive and user-friendly.
3.3 Babel
The [thref] option interferes with the babel package, thus in case that
babel is used, ntheorem has to be loaded after babel.
3.4 Hyperref
Since hyperref redefines the L ATEX \contentsline-command, it breaks
withntheorembelowversion1.17. Sinceversion1.17, theoption[hyperref]
makes ntheorem work with hyperref. The entries of theoremlists then act
as hyperlinks to the actual theorems. Version 1.31 incorporated some bugfixes
wrt. hyperref for theorem lists and for the thref option. One should
always load \usepackage{hyperref}before the first use of \newtheorem to
obtain correct handling and referencing of counters.
WARNING: The definition and redefinition of Theorem List Layouts (see
Section 2.5.2) isn’t yet working with the hyperref-package.
3.5 Mathtools and Empheq
The mathtools and empheq packages should be loaded before ntheorem as
follows:
