The recently developed proof of Fermat's Last Theorem is very lengthy and difficult, so much so as to be beyond all but a small body of specialists. While certainly of value in the developments that resulted, that proof could not be, nor…

Let $K$ be a totally real number field. For all prime number $p\geq 5$, let us denote by $F_p$ the Fermat curve of equation $x^p+y^p+z^p=0$. Under the assumption that $2$ is totally ramified in $K$, we establish some results about the set…

In the present paper we study, in a mathematically non-formal way, the validity of the Fermat's Last Theorem (FLT) by generalizing the usual procedure of extracting the square root of non convenient objects initially introduced by P. A. M.…

We prove Fermat's Last Theorem over ${\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{5})$ and ${\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{17})$ for prime exponents $p \ge 5$ in certain congruence classes modulo $48$ by using a combination of the modular method and Brauer-Manin obstructions…

This paper develops a framework of algebra whereby every Diophantine equation is made quickly accessible by a study of the corresponding row entries in an array of numbers which we call the Newtonian triangles. We then apply this framework…

In this paper we present an elementary proof for a special case of Fermat's last theorem for specific category of a, b and c. In fact, we assume that $n$ is prime and $4\rvert (n+1),$ then for $a,b$ and $c$ that $ n\nmid abc$ the equation…

Fermat's Last Theorem is proved by using the philosophical and mathematical knowledge of 1637 when the French mathematician Pierre de Fermat claimed to have a truly marvelous proof of his conjecture. Our approach consists of setting three…

Following the famous proof of Fermat's Last Theorem by Andrew Wiles using the modularity of elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$, significant developments have been made in the study of Diophantine equations using the modularity method. This…

Fermat Last Theorem, which inspired mathematicians during 300 years, is proved by Andrew Wiles. Even among mathematicians there is a narrow circle of specialists, who can read this proof and understand all details. Is it a reason for…

From some works of P. Furtw\"angler and H.S. Vandiver, we put the basis of a new cyclotomic approach to Fermat's last theorem for p>3 and to a stronger version called SFLT, by introducing governing fields of the form Q(exp(2 i pi/q-1)) for…

A elementary proof of Fermat"s Last Theorem[1] is presented for the case of even exponents n=2q, where q is any integer, including 2. For even exponents, the proof of the theorem reduces to showing that solutions of the Pythagorean equation…

`Fermat's Last Theorem for the exponent 3 has received numerous proofs, the most common of which being either in Euler's or in Gauss' style. This latter works entirely in the ring of integers of the quadratic field generated by the square…

We study Fermat's Last Theorem and Catalan's conjecture in the context of weak arithmetics with exponentiation. We deal with expansions (B,e) of models of arithmetical theories (in the language L=(0,1,+,x,<)) by a binary (partial or total)…

We give again the proof of several classical results concerning the cyclotomic approach to Fermat's last theorem using exclusively class field theory (essentially the reflection theorems), without any calculations. The fact that this is…

Alpoge and Granville (separately) gave novel proofs that the primes are infinite that use Ramsey Theory. In particular, they use Van der Waerden's Theorem and some number theory. We prove the primes are infinite using an easier theorem from…

Let $K$ be a totally real field. By the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem over $K$ we mean the statement that there is a constant $B_K$ such that for prime exponents $p>B_K$ the only solutions to the Fermat equation $a^p + b^p + c^p = 0$…
