  • Andrew Wiles spent almost a decade proving a theorem nobody else could do before him. If you add a small extra condition to the statement of Fermat's Last Theorem , it becomes almost trivial ! See my video to learn more.

    I love the attempt as I am a big fan of this theorem, the conditions are specific but there is one more condition missing, with y > x there is a chance that z-y=1 which disqualifies the inequality mentioned @ 1:16. So you have to state from the start that z-y > 1… this makes your case more and more specific. Yet, I still salute the partial proof, good job!

    Let us assume that x=1, y=2, z=3, n=3. (z-y)*n*y^(n-1) = (3-2)*3*2^2 and n*y^(n-1) = 3*2^2 so in that case (z-y)*n*y^(n-1) is equal to n*y^(n-1) and it means that the inequality is not strict.

      The centuries of trying to solve Fermat's last theorum have created whole entire new fields of mathematics. The search for a solution has advanced all of mathematics considerably. In Fermat's time, all that mathematics hadn't been discovered yet. It's almost impossible that he could have actually had a proof.

For example: the last digits of the positive subtraction value (100p + 5) ^n - (100q + 2) ^n - (100r + 1) ^n, with n = 100s + k, with p, q, r, s and k belonging to the natural numbers, and k equal to 10, 20 and 30, are always and respectively 600, 48 and 800.

    If you make the exponent exceed 2 you start to get into "uneven and prime numbers too (and prime numbers are only divisible by one and themselfs and are similar to moebiusstrips which are the non-logic object of a 50% true and 50% false statement)", which inside of the exponent create such a high divergence, that congruency breaks, the homeomorphism of the term isn't given anymore and thus equality of x^2... -> x^n.. doesn't exist.
    To visualize this you can imagine Platons analogy of the cave in reverse.
    You can ezly figure out that the (90 degree) shadow of a cube (3d) is a rectangular shape (2d), but going the other way is like confusing sub sets with sets they are contained inside of, if you don't know how far away the cube is, you can never know it's real dimensions just from the shadow.

      1 - Fermath's great theorem NEVER! and nobody! NOT! HAS BEEN PROVEN !!!
      2 - proven! THE ONLY POSSIBLE proof of Fermat's theorem
      3 - Fermath's great theorem is proved universally-proven for all numbers
      4 - Fermath's great theorem is proven in the requirements of himself! Fermata 1637 y.
      5 - Fermath's great theorem proved in 2 pages of a notebook
      6 - Fermath's great theorem is proved in the apparatus of Diophantus arithmetic
      7 - the proof of the great Fermath theorem, as well as the formulation, is easy for a student of the 5th grade of the school to understand !!!
      8 - Me! opened the GREAT! A GREAT Mystery! Fermath's theorem! (not "simple" - "mechanical" proof)

    Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for Village Idiots
    (works for the case of n=2 as well)
    To show: c^n a^n + b^n for all natural numbers, a,b,c,n, n >1
    c = a + b
    c^n = (a + b)^n = [a^n + b^n] + f(a,b,n) Binomial Expansion
    c^n = [a^n + b^n] iff f(a,b,n) = 0
    f(a,b,n) 0
    c^n [a^n + b^n] QED
    n=2
    "rectangular coordinates"
    c^2 = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab
    Note that 2ab = 4[(1/2)ab] represents the areas of four right triangles)
    "radial coordinates"
    Lete p:= pi, n= 2
    multiply by pi
    pc^2 = pa^2 + pb^2 + p2ab
    Note that pc^2, pa^2, and pb^2 represent areas of circles, wile p2ab = a(2pb) is the product of a radius (a) and a circumference (2pb).
    This proof also works for multi-nomial functions.
    Note: every number is prime relative to its own base: a = a(a/a) = a(1_a)
    a + a = 2a (Godbach's Conjecture (now Theorem.... :)
    (Wiles' proof) used modular functions defined on the upper half of the complex plane. Trying to equate the two models is trying to square the circle.
    c = a + ib
    c* - a - ib
    cc* = a^2 + b^2 #^2
    But #^2 = [cc*] +[2ab] = [a^2 + b^2] + [2ab] so complex numbers are irrelevant.
    Note: there are no positive numbers: - c = a-b, b>a iff b-c = a, a + 0 = a, a-a=0, a+a =2a
    Every number is prime relative to its own base: n = n(n/n), n + n = 2n (Goldbach)
    1^2 1 (Russell's Paradox)
    In particular the group operation of multiplication requires the existence of both elements as a precondition, meaning there is no such multiplication as a group operation)
    (Clifford Algebras are much ado about nothing)
    Remember, you read it here first)
    There is much more to this story, but I don't have the spacetime to write it here.

    sure thought you didn't wish to hear from me. let's acknowlge Fermst never claimed to have to a proof for it. I've yet to see his original marginal notation but what I recall it wasn't in English. Might not even been in French or Latin or even Coney Greek but a recall it reading that he had a "demonstration" that there were no solutions high to adding two square numbers together that would always result in their sum yielding a number that has a positive square rooted number ahead for a solution, excepting of course the squares shown by the Greeks. Let's demonstrate this by showing if we take the square of 3, which is nine and add to sixteen which is the square of 4 or 16 and it to 9 we will get to 25 which does have a square rooted solution of five time five. Right or wrong. Now try that with the squares of 2x2=4
    and 3x3=9 and which sums to 13. Unless I'm mistaken. Fermat knew what I've just demonstrated. But he knew more. Just try that with take the cube of two which is what...2x2x2 which yields eight 8 now take any other cubic number 3x3x3 which summed gives us 27 and then add 27 and 8 together and they sum to 35, which even a fool knows isn't or doesn't have as a solution any two cubic numbers that can be added together to yield what we needed. now take ten years like that guy who won the prize for solving the pulze I believe Fermat never claimed to have reached a proof for. Now I'll share what I believe Fermat and I came quickly to understand why there are NO soulitions to the cubes and because of that there can never be any solutions for and positive integers when taken to powers higher than cubes it's easy wait for me to point out why...don't we all know any time we take zero times any positive number the answer is...you know it xerro. Now pause again since Muller that there was NO solutions in to adding any two cubics together to reach a number that will have a solution in any sum arrived at that have be reached by adding two sums that were reached by adding powers including those of three because all powers higher than some squares known as Pyragorean Squares are also equal to zero. Now does that demonstration stand as a Proof. If so please send me the prize money and take it from that Cambridge guy who only thought he'd offered a proof. He didn't.
    A rigious proof can not be offered. Such a demonstration would allow zero times empty sets of positive itergers not to be zero.

    For those unfamiliar with LaTex.
    The key to the proof is that 161 can be written as the difference of the squares where
    161=(15^2)-(8^2).
    The Negation of Fermat's last Theorem: Proof IV}
    begin{theorem}
    Fermat's Conjecture, also known as Fermat's Last Theorem is false and therefore negated.
    end{theorem}
    begin{proof IV.}
    1. The difference of the squares is given as a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b).
    2. Given are the two Pythagorean triples:(8, 15, 17) and (161, 240, 289).
    3. Therefore, via the Pythagorean theorem
    (17^2=8^2+ 15^2) and (17^2=289=161+240).
    4.Therefore
    (8^2+ 15^2)= 17^2= 289=(161+240) =289
    =[(15^2- 8^2)] +[ 2(8\times 15)]
    =289=[(15-8)(15+8)]+[2(8\times 15)]
    5. Squaring 289 yields
    (8^4+ 15^4 = \quad17^4
    ight)= (289^2=161^2+240^2)=\left([(15^2-8^2)]^2
    =161^2
    ight)+\left([2(8\times 15)]^2=240^2=\left([(15-8)(15+8)]^2
    =161^2
    ight)+\left([2(8\times 15)]^2=240^2
    ight)=17^4
    =289^2=(161^2+240^2)=83521.
    6. Given the difference of the squares then
    [(15^2-8^2)]^2=\left[15^4+\left[-(8\times 15)^2 -(8\times 15)^2
    ight] + 8^4
    ight]
    =[(15^2-8^2)]^2=\left[15^4+(-\left[2(8\times 15)
    ight]^2) + 8^4
    ight]
    7. Therefore
    [(15^2-8^2)]^2+[2(8\times 15)]^2
    =\left[15^4+8^4
    ight]+\left[\left(\left[2(\left 8\times 15
    ight)
    ight]^2-\left[2\left(8\times 15
    ight)
    ight]^2
    ight)= 0
    ight]
    =[15^4+8^4]= 17^4 =289^2=(161^2+240^2)=83521.
    8. Fermat's Last Theorem states that no three positive integers, a,b, and c can satisfy the equation a^n+b^n=c^n for any positive integer value of n>2.
    9. Given step #7 if a=15, b=8, c=17 and n=4 then Fermat's Last Theorem is proven false and thus negated.
    \end{proof}
