Fermat's Last Theorem (1996) Part 2 of 5

[yonatanalemayehu]

Shimura-Taniyama gave great way to the theorem.

[scrtg]

Yeah rite, only a topologist could "solve" the theorem using inssane topological formulas

[Cubert555]

Ahhh man, i just KNEW that that one Blondie song was about proving Modular Forms!

i love 2:53 (: that quote is really... good

[theboyofblood]

"these worlds live on different planets"

[jezzleffezzle]

I'm so confused.

[orangegold1]

0^n + 0^n = 0^n ????

[ajwchin]

@orangegold1 the theorem is for nontrivial solutions (i.e. x, y, z are not zero)

[bryceguy72]

@orangegold1 That just says a^n+a^n=a^n. The whole idea is to have different numbers for a, b, and c. That's why three different letters are used. And no, you can't make a, b, and c all equal to zero because that would defeat the whole purpose of having three *different* letters. The values have to be integers, and different.

[Kanapatski]

@orangegold1 x y and z are 3 different integers not xxx or yyy or zzz

[raydredX]

@orangegold1 Find the solution for a^n+b^n=c^n; if n is an integers greater than two; and if a, b and c are positive integers.

That song came out of nowhere..

[Vorbis5]

I feel sooooo much smarter

Click 7:17 for the Blondie song and the lovely montage.

[sonofhendrix]

Perhaps he was murderd.

[cantroos]

@sonofhendrix are you stupid? Every rational curve is modular so he couldn't have been murdered.

[looloopklop]

@cantroos are you stupid, mabye someone didnt want this to be proven dumb ass.

[cantroos]

@looloopklop anyone nerdy enough to worry about math problems surely doesn't have it in them to commit murder. think about it.
