An Ephemeral Analysis of Fermat’s Last Theory, using Diophantine Methods

Last edit: May 8th, 2024

I believe this proof is well conceived and presented in a logical form for the average math aficionado, who is interested in Fermat’s Last Theorem, but can not find the energy to read thru poorly written, boring proofs for this highly symmetrical abstract formula in Number Theory.

In general, the main FLT proof here is quite easy to follow if you have a basic understanding of prime numbers, Modulus mathematics, binomial expansion, and Fermat’s Little Theory. Only proviso, is it may take you a while to absorb, perhaps 2 or 3 hours, in 3 separate sessions. But have no fear of time well spent, I have labored to make this document sparkly and entertaining to the reader, I promise you will not suffer in reading and absorbing it.

Additionally regarding the human factor, this work of mathematical art I have been striving to finish for the last 18 months, has been somewhat analogous to writing out a 400 page novel. I am presently working on the final chapter, the climax, and am starting to relax, as I am seeing the end result in my mind.

This proof is best read using Chrome and/or Adobe Reader. Both Firefox and Edge distort the pdf Hyperlink visibility within the document, by “boxing” the Hyperlinks.

An Ephemeral Proof to FLT

P.S.
I have been critiqued that the proof uses too much colorful metaphor, and professional mathematicians may therefore have disdain for it. I responded with a quote by the classical esteemed mathematician, David Hilbert, regarding this connection to reality:

A mathematical theory is not to be considered complete, until you have made it so clear that you can explain it to the first man whom you meet on the street.”

Essentially, without metaphor, our connection to reality is broken, and there can be no sense in the explanation, for the common man.
