Fermat's Last Theorem over some small real quadratic fields

Number Theory 2016-01-20 v2

Abstract

Using modularity, level lowering, and explicit computations with Hilbert modular forms, Galois representations and ray class groups, we show that for 3d233 \le d \le 23 squarefree, d5d \ne 5, 1717, the Fermat equation xn+yn=znx^n+y^n=z^n has no non-trivial solutions over the quadratic field Q(d)\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d}) for n4n \ge 4. Furthermore, we show for d=17d=17 that the same holds for prime exponents n3n \equiv 3, 5(mod8)5 \pmod{8}.
