Mar 24, 2020 at 21:46 comment added Lubin I concur with @Carl-FredrikNybergBrodda: it would help to know just what you mean here. If you have a definition and then it gets simplified, perhaps in several steps to equivalent but shorter forms, then I would do this: Don’t give the definition first, but rather prove the lemma that the various descriptions of the phenomenon are equivalent, and then define: A (blah) that satisfies any one of the conditions of the above Lemma will be said to be (wudge).

Mar 24, 2020 at 16:59 comment added YCor QED "quod erat demonstrandum", literally meaning "what was to be shown", doesn't fit, but I see no problem with the box sign. An alternative is (using 'theoremstyle" in latex) to use italics in the definition environment. I guess anyway that the most standard marking is the blank line, which is automatic after definition environment.
