    Extractions: Er is ook een Nederlandstalige versie beschikbaar. On 5 July 2005, Prof. Dr. Jan Bergstra proposed a list of ten challenging research problems for computer science in [NOAG-ict] p. 52. The first problem of the list reads as follows: "Formalize and verify by computer a proof of Fermat's Last Theorem, as proved by A. Wiles in 1995. This problem is in the spirit of a long and strong Dutch tradition." This is indeed a challenge. I expect the problem to be solved in around fifty years, with a very wide margin. On this page, I try to explain some aspects of the problem, and to give relevant links to the literature and to other web pages. Aspects: Around 1640, Pierre de Fermat wrote in the margin of his Latin translation of Diophantos' Arithmetica a remark that we can render in present terms as follows: Theorem.

Top Documentary Films - Watch Free Documentaries Home Browse Documentaries ... 12 Comments Simon Singh and John Lynch’s film tells the enthralling and emotional story of Andrew Wiles. A quiet English mathematician, he was drawn into maths by Fermat’s puzzle, but at Cambridge in the ’70s, FLT was considered a joke, so he set it aside. Then, in 1986, an extraordinary idea linked this irritating problem with one of the most profound ideas of modern mathematics: the Taniyama-Shimura Conjecture, named after a young Japanese mathematician who tragically committed suicide. The link meant that if Taniyama was true then so must be FLT. When he heard, Wiles went after his childhood dream again. “I knew that the course of my life was changing.” For seven years, he worked in his attic study at Princeton, telling no one but his family. “My wife has only known me while I was working on Fermat”, says Andrew. In June 1993 he reached his goal. At a three-day lecture at Cambridge, he outlined a proof of Taniyama – and with it Fermat’s Last Theorem. Wiles’ retiring life-style was shattered. Mathematics hit the front pages of the world’s press. Then disaster struck. His colleague, Dr Nick Katz, made a tiny request for clarification. It turned into a gaping hole in the proof. As Andrew struggled to repair the damage, pressure mounted for him to release the manuscript – to give up his dream. So Andrew Wiles retired back to his attic. He shut out everything, but Fermat.

84. Carmichael Numbers

    Extractions: If n is a prime, and b n , then b n is congruent to 1 modulo n . So if we compute b n modulo n , and don't get 1, then we can conclude that n is not a prime. n A number n is a pseudoprime to the base b if b n is congruent to 1 modulo n . If a number is a pseudoprime to a variety of bases, then it is likely to be a prime. Below you can find out which composite numbers less than m are pseudoprimes to various bases. m A Carmichael number is a composite number n such that b n is congruent to 1 modulo n for every b that is relatively prime to n . So a Carmichael number passes the Fermat's-little-theorem test as best as it can.

    Extractions: Mathematians do not often make it into the world's press. But in 1993, Andrew Wiles, a British maths professor at Princeton University, hit the headlines. His feat? Showing that there are no integer solutions to the equation x n + y n = z n when n is an integer greater than 2. In other words, he had proved Fermat's Last Theorem This problem was written down around 1637 by Pierre de Fermat, a French lawyer in Toulouse who was also a prominent amateur mathematician. He was reading a textbook when a thought occurred to him. He decided to write it down before he forgot it - and the nearest piece of paper was the margin of the said textbook: ``On the other hand it is impossible for a cube to be written as a sum of two cubes or a fourth power to be written as the sum of two fourth powers or in general, for any number which is a power greater than the second to be written as a sum of two like powers. I have a truly marvellous demonstration of this proposition which this margin is too large to contain.'' Now, it is suspected that he later found that his proof was incorrect, since he only ever
