the declarations allow you to set the prefix used (or not) in the
instance, the default for HTML (and MathML which uses the same)
is for no prefix, but you can specify a prefix if you wish by using a
parameter entity declaration.

but non of this makes any difference to the stylesheet unless you use th
ename() function (which is usually inadvisable for any input files using
namespaces)
