Number Theory: Fermat’s Last Theorem Fermat then broadened his investigation of primality to numbers of the form an + 1, for integers a and n. A letter to Mersenne, dated Christmas Day 1640, suggests that he found a proof that such a number could be prime only if a is even and n is a power of 2 (Exercise 4.5). However, its aim does not stop there. There are great books on the abstract properties of prime numbers. 19 0 obj 854.2 816.7 954.9 884.7 952.8 884.7 952.8 0 0 884.7 714.6 680.6 680.6 1020.8 1020.8 /F6 25 0 R /LastChar 196 /FirstChar 33 /Encoding 7 0 R /BaseFont/PUMTGR+CMBX8 777.8 694.4 666.7 750 722.2 777.8 722.2 777.8 0 0 722.2 583.3 555.6 555.6 833.3 833.3 << Free kindle book and epub digitized and proofread by Project Gutenberg.
