Hello, all. I'm currently writing a thesis in LaTeX that uses a great
deal of equations. In a couple of instances, I would like to present a
group of equations together, with related equation numbers. Say I've
used the equation environment to number my first three equations 1, 2,
and 3. Suppose that I would like to number the next group of related
equations 4a, 4b, and 4c and then go on with 5, 6, 7, ... for the
following equations.

Does LaTeX support such flexible equation numbering? Is there any way
to do this short of manually typing in these numbers (which of course
would disrupt LaTeX's automatic numbering feature)? I appreciate any
suggestions you could offer.
