    Extractions: Fermat's Last Theorem "During the course of studies on the Goldbach Conjecture, using finite methods, what seems to be an elementary proof of Fermat's 'Last' Theorem has been found. Astonishing here is the lucidity of the arguments and immediacy of their logic. Hopefully, by (numeric) application to the so-called 'hard' problems of Number Theory, some manner of agreement (disputation) will arise." Fermat's Last Theorem "Here we will look at another method of simple proof of Fermat's Last Theorem (FLT) which was published in the booklet 'Fermat's Last Theorem Proved and Award Offered for Refutation' in 1990 with a supplement in 1994 which discussed many invalid but interesting criticisms. (This page will be available on the Internet for interest of mathematicians in seeing the proof, however for the Award conditions ( award valid till the end of 2003) and full discussion of criticisms readers are requested to Purchase the book.)"

    Extractions: Fermat’s Last Theorem dominated my own life for four years, because I made a TV documentary, wrote a book and then lectured on the subject. Getting involved in Fermat’s mischievous conundrum set me on the path towards being an author and ignited an interest in mathematics that has continued ever since. As a physicist, I was always interested in mathematics as a tool for studying the universe, but learning about Fermat’s Last Theorem taught me to love mathematics for its own sake. There is a Mathematics Corner currently being developed for this site.

PREAMBLE AND ABSTRACT After 350 years of unsuccessful attempts, a mathematically highly advanced proof of Fermat's Last Theorem (FLT) by A. Wiles was accepted and published in Annals of mathematics , May 1995. However, it cannot be Fermat's own elementary demonstration. In the opinion of the present author the following proof is the one Fermat had in mind. FLT holds that the equation z w = x w + y w can have a positive integer solution if and only if w = 2. As is well known, a proof for w being any prime suffices. Therefore w is considered a prime number throughout. Suppose z is a composite positive integer. If for only one of its prime number factors, say p

Click the link for more information. mathematician Pierre de Fermat Pierre de Fermat (August 17, 1601 - January 12, 1665) was a French lawyer and amateur mathematician who is generally given minor credit for the development of modern calculus; in particular, for his work regarding tangents and stationary points. His work was such that he is sometimes regarded as the "father" of, both, differential calculus and number theory. He also made notable contributions to analytic geometry and probability.

Beal's conjecture A prize is offered for proof or disproof of Beal's conjecture , stated as follows: If x,y,z,m,a,b positive integers then x,y,z have a common factor Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem A proof of Fermat's Last Theorem (FLT) is available using the binomial expansion . In this proof it is shown that z cannot be an integer in the equality x,y,z,m positive integers thus proving FLT x,y,z,m positive integers Disproof of Beal's Conjecture When a=b=m , Beal's equation (1) becomes Fermat's equation (2). Clearly, Fermat's equation (2) is a special case of Beal's equation (1). The same procedure used in Fermat's equation (2) can be used to show that z cannot be an integer in Beal's equation (1). Start by rearranging Beal's equation (1) x,y,z,m positive integers and then expressing the parenthesis term as a binomial series, with results 1. Since m 1/m is not an integer and the series cannot terminate becoming the binomial theorem.

More generally, the field has come to be concerned with a wider class of problems that arose naturally from the study of integers. Number theory may be subdivided into several fields according to the methods used and the questions investigated. See for example the list of number theory topics. Click the link for more information. Euler's theorem (also known as the Fermat-Euler theorem ) states that if n is a positive integer The integers consist of the natural numbers (0, 1, 2, ...) and their negatives (-1, -2, -3, ...; -0 is equal to and therefore not included as a separate integer). The set of all integers is usually denoted in mathematics by Z (or Z in blackboard bold, ), which stands for Zahlen (German for "numbers"). They are also known as the

The paper is necessary to follow the accompanied discussion. The object is to show that: b r + a n = p q is impossible when the exponents, r, n, and q, are positive and greater than 2 and a,b and p are coprime. Consider the following which is always solvable for “a” and “b.” a + b = p q a and b can now be defined in terms of each other under the transformation, T:, when r, n, and q are at least 3 making the transformation definitive (reversible) T: [a b r , b a n ] , such that: T: (a+b) = a n + b r = p q This transformation may be applied any number of times as long as it remains consistent: T: (a n + b r ) = a rn + b rn = p q Should this latter transformation hold, it is somewhat trivial to say that a rn and b rn may be represented by the simple sum, x + y. Originally, p q was expressed as a + b so that now a and b can be redefined as x snd y to determine a new solution that satisfies (x n + y r = p q under the transformation. However, the fact remains that (b

    Extractions: Welcome to one of the most fascinating areas of mathematics. There's a fair amount of work involved in understanding even approximately how the recent proof of this theorem was done, but if you like mathematics, you should find it very rewarding. Please let me know by email how you like these pages. I'll fix any errors, of course, and try to improve anything that is too unclear. If you have ever read about number theory you probably know that (the so-called) Fermat's Last Theorem has been one of the great unsolved problems of the field for three hundred and fifty years. You may also know that a solution of the problem was claimed very recently - in 1993. And, after a few tense months of trying to overcome a difficulty that was noticed in the original proof, experts in the field now believe that the problem really is solved. In this report, we're going to present an overview of some of the mathematics that has either been developed over the years to try to solve the problem (directly or indirectly) or else which has been found to be relevant. The emphasis here will be on the "big picture" rather than technical details. (Of course, until you begin to see the big picture, many things may look like just technical details.) We will see that this encompasses an astonishingly large part of the whole of "pure" mathematics. In some sense, this demonstrates just how "unified" as a science mathematics really is. And this fact, rather than any intrinsic utility of a solution to the problem itself, is why so many mathematicians have worked on it over the years and have treated it as such an important problem.

Much later he spent time and effort proving the cases n =4 and n =5. Had he had a proof to his theorem earlier, there would have been no need for him to study specific cases. Fermat may have had one of the following ``proofs'' in mind when he wrote his famous comment. Fermat discovered and applied the method of infinite descent, which, in particular can be used to prove FLT for n =4. This method can actually be used to prove a stronger statement than FLT for n =4, viz, has no non-trivial integer solutions. It is possible and even likely that he had an incorrect proof of FLT using this method when he wrote the famous ``theorem''. He had a wrong proof in mind. The following proof, proposed first by Lame' was thought to be correct, until Liouville pointed out the flaw, and by Kummer which latter became and expert in the field. It is based on the incorrect assumption that prime decomposition is unique in all domains.

    Extractions: Fermat was a 17th-century mathematician who wrote a note in the margin of his book stating a particular proposition and claiming to have proved it. His proposition was about an equation which is closely related to Pythagoras' equation . Pythagoras' equation gives you: x y z You can ask, what are the whole number solutions to this equation, and you can see that: and 5 And if you go on looking then you find more and more such solutions. Fermat then considered the cubed version of this equation: x y z He raised the question: can you find solutions to the cubed equation? He claimed that there were none . In fact, he claimed that for the general family of equations: "x n y n z n where n is bigger than 2,

    Extractions: Recommend this site Euler's generalization of the Fermat's Little Theorem depends on a function which indeed was invented by Euler (1707-1783) but named by J.J.Sylvester (1814-1897) in 1883. I never saw an authoritative explanation for the name totient he has given the function. In Sylvestor's opinion mathematics is essentially about seeing "differences in similarity, similarity in difference." The word totient rhymes with quotient and the function has to do with division but in an unusual way. (Scott Brodie brougt to my attention that the Oxford English Dictionary brings up the latin root tot for adding up, total. Tot has also the meaning (of unkown origin) of a small child or a small drink. It would be very much in the spirit of the above maxim to use the word with two so different meanings. You could expect this from Sylvester whom E.T. Bell has christened hothead.) The Euler's totient function for integer m is defined as the number of positive integers not greater than and coprime to m. A few first values: (13)=12, etc., do not appear to follow any law. But there is a formula discovered by Euler to which we shall turn shortly. In one special case the formula is really simple: for prime p
