Very good! I think what it's saying is: The cone in a grid cube near the beginning is a shape (model), to show visually, in a different way, all solutions for Pythagoras' theorem, a2 + b2 = c2, by where the cone hits the points inside the cube on the green dots. (Before that, it showed a circle on a two-dimensional grid. That sort of works to show which solutions for Pythagoras' theorem, but only if you project it up into three dimensions do you see how all solutions get bigger and bigger.) When the grid is changed into feactional points, or the shape to touch them is made more complex (as different curves than a cone, which is basically a circle from the top), no points still hit (green dots). This means that, despite all the shapes thought of to "hit the grid and make green dots", i.e., hit integer solutions for powers over 2, nothing has been found as of yet. To prove that nothing could be found is what the solution did.
To prove Fermat clearly, short,absolutely, easily I use the condition xyz are integer 1^2+2^2+3^2+4^2+....+n^2=Sn=n(n+1)(2n+1)/6=2n^3+3n^2+n/6 2n^3=6Sn - 3n^2 -n n^3=3Sn-3/2n^2-n/2.

When my math teacher mentioned in class that he would give us extra credit for proving this, I made the mistake of taking him seriously. But, of course, that afternoon, when I looked up the theorem, I came to my senses.
Bruh wdf, I’m hearing the words he’s saying but I can’t understand what he’s talking about and how he reached that conclusion. It’s like hearing a language you don’t understand
I have a proof but it won't fit in this comment! RUclips limits the number of words you can- ah, damn, never mind. Unlimited characters in comments... Umm, well... I would show you my proof, but I gotta go now, other stuff to do.
x² + y² = z² If you pick any point on the surface of that cone, you'll get an x,y,z coordinate... which will satisfy Pythagoras (Fermat at n=2). So the surface of the cone is the solution which includes all non-integer numbers. However, at x=±3 and y=±4 and z=5, valid points on the cone, this is Fermat solution for n=2 (positive integers). What follows is if we rendering a shape which represents every valid solution for x³+y³=z³ (and then for subsequent higher powers), there are valid non-integer values for this equation, but conjectures (as did Fermat) that there isn't place on the shape, where all three coordinates are exact integers.
SnapGotYou.com / Trossachs Photography I appreciate that you tried to explain it, I really do, but I still can't really understand it beyond the basic stuff that nothing in x² + y² = z² will work out. That's all I get, the rest is just too damn complicated visually to see and understand for me as it is right now.
yeah, in retrospect that totally was 7/4 lol Never before heard a song written quite like that. Also for some reason the song artist decided to put accents on beats 1 and 4.5? so that's strange.
"Just as one can raytrace a deformed solid, by following a deformed ray through the undeformed shape we can deform the integer grid instead of the Fairmont curve."
The preface of the material clearly covers that. The question is whether or not there is an alternative proof which Fermat was capable of forming with the knowledge of the era.
If fermat said there was a solution and that Wiles used maths not even invented in fermats time, either fermat was pissing about, or there was a much simpler way of solving this equation !!!
Well you can end all your speculations. Fermat's last Theorem has been solved and you can prove it for yourself. Just search on RUclips for 'Fermat's last Theorem, the original proof'.
If you read the description you'd see the uploader KNOWS it has already been proved. This video is not about historical accuracy / proof. It is about VISUALIZING the set of equations that are relevant to the theorem (namely x^n + y^n = z^n for differing values of n).
what? he didn't have another blank piece of paper ? did his marvelous proof need to be written in the damn margin? he would have had to know that such a proof would be a mathematical big deal and IF he had such a proof it wouldn't all be in his head. he'd have notes. the story is not credible.
z^n=(x+y)^n x^n+y^2≠z^n The value of the expansion of the equation that is the multiplication of different prime numbers. It does not become √ of a natural number.
not to be pedantic but the joke appears to be a meme of what fermat said(and i'm rephrasing in my own words as i dont remember the exact words): "i have proof but it wont fit the margin of this page" then the person in the video said "i have proof but it wont fit in this video tape" then the commenter said "i have proof but it wont fit in this comment" that's why he got all those thumbs up.
Fermat's Last Theorem: 홀수 솟수 p에 대하여 x^p+y^p=z^p을 만족하는 자연수 x, y, z는 존재하지 않는다 (My Proof) 만약 자연수 x, y, z가 존재한다면 페르마 소정리에 의해, vw(v+w+2pk)F(v, w, p, k) = p^(p-1) k^p 으로 변형되며 그 해는 (x, y, z) = (v+pk, w+pk, v+w+pk) 꼴이다. 그런데 자연수 k= n인 경우 해가 존재한다면 n=1*n 이므로 k=1일 때의 해의 n배의 해를 가져야 하는데... k=1일 때 해가 존재한다면 '홀수=짝수'로 모순. 따라서 해는 존재하지 않음.

Here's a different approach to the Last Theorem on a single page: ruclips.net/video/-jpA-tr68ww/видео.html
@kyto the theorem states that n has to be larger than 2. Your solution is incorrect as it took more than a simple equation to demonstrate that the theorem is indeed correct. No number ^n when is above two will give you whole numbers.
3^3+4^3+5^3=6^3, so there are infinitely many solutions to the first equation. I believe the second equation is true as well, but I'm not sure. At least there is a solution if a=0 : x=2682440, y=15365639, z=18796760 and b=20615673. However, I've no idea of the answer of your two next questions...
x^3 + y^3 + z^3 = a^3 x^4 + y^4 + z^4 + a^4 = b^4 Are there solutions for this indefinitely for n integers to the power of n? Are there systematically no solutions for n integers to the power of (x>n)?
Of course the fact that it was a video or a video with a person wasn't what provoked my doubts, but I see I have overlooked the opening slide some-how. Never-mind that thought. I enjoyed your sarcasm, though. Sarcasm is funny.
Historically, every time we discover a new numerical concept we begin using it for useful purposes: The number 0 in 500BC, Binary numbers 300BC, negative numbers 100BC, algebra 820AD, logarithms, calculus etc. If Fermat was wrong, then a new system would exist that we may take advantage of. Proving Fermat was right simply tells us to look elsewhere.
Every comment below makes absolutely NO reference to mathematics, geometry, or solving equations. So why did non-math people even watch this very technical, complicated video? That answer is a theorem that really needs solving !!

Fermat had said x^3+y^3=/z^3
I supose
x^3+y^3=z^3
3Sx-3/2x^2-x/2+3Sy-3/2y^2-y/2 -3Sz+3/2z^2+z/2=0
x^2+y^2-z^2=2Sx+2Sy-2Sz-x/3-y/3+z/3.
Sx+S(x-1)+Sy+S(y-1)-Sz-S(z-1)=x/3+y/3-z/3.
Or
2S(x-1)+2S(y-1)- 2S(z-1)+x^2+y^2-z^2=x/3+y/3-z/3

1^2+2^2+3^2+..+(x-1)^2+1^2+2^2+3^2+..+(y-1)^2- [ 1^2+2^2+3^2+..+(z-1)^2]= - x^2/2- y^2/2 +z^2/2+x/6+y/6-z/6

Contrary to the assumption
conclusive
x^3+y^3=/z^3.

The real truth behind the matter is that he suspected the conjecture was true, but didn't have a proof.
