Abstract

The main result of the present article is a proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for sufficiently large prime exponents pp with p2(mod3)p \equiv 2 \pmod{3} over certain number fields. A particular case of these fields are the maximal real subfields of the cyclotomic extensions Q(ζ3n)\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{3^n}) for every nn. Our strategy consists in combining the modular method with a generalization of an arithmetic result of Pomey to these fields.
