Hace 2 días · In number theory, Fermat's Last Theorem (sometimes called Fermat's conjecture, especially in older texts) states that no three positive integers a, b, and c satisfy the equation an + bn = cn for any integer value of n greater than 2. The cases n = 1 and n = 2 have been known since antiquity to have infinitely many solutions. [1]

11 de abr. de 2024 · Pierre de Fermat derived his principle of least time by considering the path that light would take when traveling between two points. He postulated that light would follow the path that minimized the time taken to travel between these points. My question is, how did Fermat (died 1665), or Snell (died 1626), know that light traveled ...
27 de abr. de 2024 · This started to change in the first half of the seventeenth century, when Pierre de Fermat and René Descartes independently began to study curves through equations. Each of them discovered independently how curves can be represented by equations in two unknowns, and they both found ways to apply algebra to problems of determining normal and tangent lines to curves.
