ShowingImportancePrizesTopicFermat's Last Theorem3 claims

Fermat's Last Theorem: no positive integer solutions to x^n + y^n = z^n for n > 2. Claims about the theorem, its proof (Wiles–Taylor), conditional or alternative proofs, and reformulations belong here; general Diophantine questions without a connection to the theorem do not.

A proof of the abc conjecture would yield new proofs of Fermat's Last Theorem and Catalan's Conjecture.

If a claim here is wrong, or missing evidence, open it: every claim page carries its own entry for challenges, evidence, and corrections. If the graph is missing a claim entirely, propose it below. A proposal is reviewed on its merits; accepted claims are matched against the graph and enter it with their reasoning on record.
