Fermat's Last Theorem - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Fermat&Fermat's Last Theorem considers solutions to the Fermat equation: a n + b n = c n with positive integers a, b, and c and an integer n greater than 2. There are several generalizations of the Fermat equation to more general equations that allow the exponent n to be a negative integer or rational, or to consider three different exponents.

(Pierre De Fermat, 1601-1665) The Proof: I) At least one of the following two sentences is true. II) The preceding sentence is false. III) x ª + y ª = z ª has no positive integer solutions (x, y, z, a) for a > 2. Q.E.D.
Simple Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem
https://www.oakton.edu/user/4/pboisver/fermat.htmlA Simple Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem It is a shame that Andrew Wiles spent so many of the prime years of his life following such a difficult path to proving Fermat's Last Theorem, when there exists a much shorter and easier proof. Indeed, this concise, elegant alternative, reproduced below, is almost certainly the one that Fermat himself referred to in the margin of his copy* of …
