    Fermat, Pierre de [pyer d u Pronunciation Key Fermat, Pierre de , French mathematician. A magistrate whose avocation was mathematics, Fermat is known as a founder of modern number theory and probability theory. He also did much to establish coordinate geometry (see Cartesian coordinates ) and invented a number of methods for determining maxima and minima that were later of use to Newton in applying the calculus. He noted without proof, although he claimed to have discovered one, the assertion now known as Fermat's Last Theorem, . which states that the equation x n y n z n , where x, y, z, and n are nonzero integers, has no solutions for n that are greater than 2. Prizes were offered for a proof of this theorem, and attempted proofs resulted in many developments in the theory of numbers. British mathematician Andrew Wiles described a proof of the conjecture in 1993, but a gap in the proof required additional work, which was completed in 1994. However, Wiles's proof involved mathematical concepts that were unknown in Fermat's lifetime, so whether Fermat had a valid proof remains conjecture. In optics Fermat recognized that of all possible paths, light takes the path that takes the least time; this fundamental rule is known as Fermat's principle.

PIERRE DE FERMAT
FERMAT, PIERRE DE Fermat was for some time councillor for the parliament of Toulouse, and in the discharge of the duties of that office he was distinguished both for legal knowledge and for strict integrity of conduct. Though the sciences were the principal objects of his private studies, he was also an accomplished general scholar and an excellent linguist. He died at Toulouse on the 12th of January f 665. He left a son, Samuel de Fermat (163o169o) who published translations of several Greek authOrs and wrote certain books on law in addition to editing his fathers works. The Opera mathematica of Fermat were published at Toulouse, in 2 vois. folio, I670 and 1679. The first contains the Arithmetic of Diophantus, with notes and additions. The second includes a Method for the Quadrature of Parabolas, and a treatise on Maxima and Minima, on Tangents, and on Centres of Gravity, containing the same solutions of a variety of problems as were afterwards incorporated into the more extensive method of fluxions by Newton and Leibnitz. In the same volume are treatises on Geometric Loci, or Spherical Tangencies, and on the Rectification of Curves, besides a restoration of Apolloniuss Plane Loci, together with the authors correspondence addressed to Descartes, Pascal, Roberval, Huygens and others. The fEuvres of Fermat have been re-edited by P. Tannery and C. Henry (Paris, 1891-1894). See Paul Tannery, Sur Ia date des principales dbcouvertes de Fermat, in the Bulletin Darboux (1883); and Les Manuscrits de Fermat, in the Annales de Ia facult des lettres de Bordeaux.

http://www.sectormatematica.cl/biografias/fermat.htm
Fermat, Pierre Fermat fue un abogado y un gobernante oficial el más recordado por su trabajo en la Teoría de números, en particular por el último teorema de Fermat; las matemáticas eran para él su hobby.
En 1636 Fermat propuso un sistema de geometría analítica similar a uno de Descartes quien lo propuso unos años después. El trabajo de Fermat estaba basado en una reconstrucción del trabajo de Apolonio usado en el álgebra de Viète. Similar trabajo dejo Fermat al descubrir métodos similares de diferenciación e integración encontrando los máximos y mínimos. Fermat dijo que había descubierto una prueba ("prueba maravillosa"), pero que no había en la página suficiente margen para darla. Númerosos matemáticos han intentado, sin éxito probar este teorema, el cuál enuncia que dada la ecuación:
X n + Y n = Z n
Este teorema indicado figura en el texto Varia Opera Mathematical (1679), públicadas póstumamente.
A comienzos del siglo XVII el panorama de la matemática justificaba el plural de su denominación : "Las matemáticas", que aún subsiste ahora.

Fermat, Pierre de Fermat, Pierre de (Beaumont-de-Lomagne 1601 - Castres 1665), matematico francese. Dopo aver studiato giurisprudenza ed essere divenuto consigliere parlamentare a Tolosa, intrattenne contatti con gli esponenti di primo piano della scienza e della filosofia suoi contemporanei. In gioventù, insieme all'amico Blaise Pascal , compì una serie di indagini sulle proprietà dei numeri figurati, ricavandone un metodo per calcolare le probabilità. Fermat non rese pubblico quasi nessun risultato delle sue ricerche matematiche; in Ad locos planos et solidos isagoge (successivo al 1637) elaborò i fondamenti della geometria analitica indipendentemente da Cartesio . È inoltre considerato il padre della moderna teoria dei numeri , ambito in cui compì diverse scoperte. Il suo metodo per individuare le ordinate massime e le minime delle linee curve aprì la strada alle ricerche sull' analisi infinitesimale e venne applicato a ricerche di ottica. A Fermat si devono inoltre diversi teoremi, tra i quali il così detto ultimo teorema di Fermat Torna all'inizio di biografie di grandi matematici Vota questo sito!

4.6 Pierre Fermat
Pierre Fermat wurde im August 1601 in Beaumont-de-Lomagne geboren und starb im Januar 1665 in Castres. Fermat war Sohn eines Lederhändlers, studierte Rechtswissenschaften, wurde Anwalt und später Parlamentsrat. Nur in Mußestunden beschäftigte er sich mit Mathematik. Fermat schloß sich einer Gruppe von Experimentalwissenschaftlern und Naturphilosophen (Virtuosi) an, die auf seine weitere Tätigkeit großen Einfluß ausübten. Durch das Studium der antiken Mathematik, vor allem der Schriften von Euklid und Apollonios, sowie die Rekonstruktionsversuche der verlorengegangenen Bücher der "Konika" des Apollonios, wurde er auf die Behandlung geometrischer Örter geführt. Als Ergebnis entstand die Schrift "Ad locos planos et solidos isagoge". Hiermit entwickelte er wesentliche Gedanken der analytischen Geometrie. Aus den Werken von Pappos von Alexandria stammte die Anregung zur Extremwertregel, die Fermat zur Studie "Über Maxima und Minima" führte. Auch in der Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung hat Fermat Wesentliches geleistet.
