This category contains results about Lemmata.
Definitions specific to this category can be found in Definitions/Lemmata.
A lemma is a statement which is proven during the course of reaching the proof of a theorem.
Logically there is no qualitative difference between a lemma and a theorem.
They are both statements whose value is either true or false.
However, a lemma is seen more as a stepping-stone than a theorem in itself (and frequently takes a lot more work to prove than the theorem to which it leads).
