Don't forget RefTeX (it should already be part of your Emacs), 
(http://staff.science.uva.nl/~dominik/Tools/reftex/). These settings 
help a bit too:

  (autoload 'reftex-mode     "reftex" "RefTeX Minor Mode" t)
  (autoload 'turn-on-reftex  "reftex" "RefTeX Minor Mode" nil)
  (autoload 'reftex-citation "reftex-cite" "Make citation" nil)
  (autoload 'reftex-index-phrase-mode "reftex-index" "Phrase mode" t)
  (add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'turn-on-reftex)   ; with AUCTeX LaTeX mode
  (add-hook 'latex-mode-hook 'turn-on-reftex)   ; with Emacs latex mode
  (setq reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX t)
;  M-x customize-variable RET reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX RET

And besides AUCTeX there is preview-latex 
(http://preview-latex.sourceforge.net/, 
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/preview-latex/). It converts 
particularly math into graphics.

AUCTeX allows a lot of customization ...

(setq TeX-view-format "pdf")
;--  (remove ".pdf" completion-ignored-extensions))
(setq pdf-previewer-program "texdoc")
 '(TeX-PDF-mode t)
 '(dired-view-command-alist (quote (("\\.\\(ps\\|ps_pages\\|eps\\)\\'" 
. "texdoc %s") ("\\.pdf\\'" . "texdoc %s") 
("\\.\\(jpe?g\\|gif\\|png\\)\\'" . "xv %s") ("\\.dvi\\'" . "texdoc 
%s"))))
