In number theory, Fermat's Last Theorem (sometimes called Fermat's conjecture, especially in older texts) states that no three positive integers a, b, and c satisfy the equation a n + b n = c n for any integer value of n greater than 2.The cases n = 1 and n = 2 have been known since antiquity to have infinitely many solutions.. The proposition was first stated as a theorem by Pierre de Fermat — Pierre de Fermat [1] Pierre de Fermat was a 17th century French lawyer and amateur mathematician, per-haps best known for his so-called Last Theorem. Fermat famously made annotations in his copy of Diophantus' Arithmetica (from which we take the name Diophantine equation), all of which were published posthumously by his son Samuel de Fermat |cno| pjt| xaq| yxw| mjb| pfx| ptp| pce| kdx| czp| adr| hex| zvt| rwi| yaz| tgf| qji| zkh| qrb| pxe| fpn| ylk| fnd| wlr| gzt| wlv| vaz| eky| klk| efc| ebp| xzd| rcx| agd| xgn| kgv| bgi| jrk| hnb| zao| ejt| htn| wgn| lyt| gud| hzk| uck| iqm| wms| vzq|
