This question is both on LaTeX and on mathematics writing style; I hope that's still apropriate here.
I have a proof that ends with a (right) numbered equation, and I'm pondering about where to put the QED symbol. The standard right margin position conflicts with the equation number, so what would be considered best style for the QED placement?
Secondly, I use the ntheorem package, but cannot place the QED symbol using \qedhere
on this equation line. Is there a (simple) way to solve this?

I have the following two suggestions:
Reword your proof. Even if you merely state the obvious:
or
Place the QED symbol manually next to the equation and correct for horizontal alignment with
\phantom
or use\rlap
. Hopefully this is not something that has to be done frequently.
