I am trying to number my theorems according to section number. I use the following in the preamble, which works:
\newtheorem{theorem}{Theorem}[section]
However, since my section is numbered as roman numeral, my theorem numbering ends up being like
Theorem IV.1
Which is really ugly. I would like to keep my section numbering as Roman numerals but my theorem numbering as Arabic. I've tried stuff like
\newtheorem{theorem}{Theorem}[\arabic{section}]
But this wouldn't compile. I've also looked around online but couldn't find the answer.
Pleas let me know if you know a solution to this problem. Thank you!!
