Sophie Germain (1776-1831) was largely self-taught in mathematics and, two centuries ago, in solitude, devised and implemented a plan to prove Fermats Last Theorem. Pengelley has taken excerpts of her writings and, by asking his readers to decipher...Lasīt vairāk
Let be a prime. Let and be elliptic curves with isomorphic torsion modules and . Assume further that either every modules isomorphism admits a multiple with preserving the Weil pairing; or no isomorphism preserves the Weil pairing. This paper consid...Lasīt vairāk
Presents in full detail the proof of Fermats Last Theorem given by Wiles and Taylor. With these two books, the reader will be able to see the whole picture of the proof to appreciate one of the greatest achievements in the history of mathematics. C...Lasīt vairāk
In the margins of a book, Pierre de Fermat (1601-65) claimed that he had a mathematical proof that was too large to fit the margin, but it was not until 1994 that other mathematicians proved what had become known as Fermats Last Theorem. Saito (math...Lasīt vairāk
