The so called "Last Theorem of Fermat", (Classic Solution) a proof by Brian S. McMillan After Euclid IF: 4 x^2 y^2 + (x^2 - y^2)^2 = (x^2 + y^2)^2 And we reduce the above equation to its simplest Terms. THEN: 4 x^2 + (x^2 - 1)^2 = (x^2 + 1)^2 After McMillan IF: ((x^2 + 1)/2)^2 - ((x^2 - 1)/2)^2 = x^2 OR: ((a^x + 1)/2)^2 - ((a^x - 1)/2)^2 = a^x THEN: (a^x + 1)^x - 2^x a^x = (a^x - 1)^x For no 'x' greater than 2 Furthermore, this proof for the "Fermat's Last Theorem" illustrates exactly why the terms diverge when the exponent is greater than 2. __________________________________________________ The last equation above completes the proof. However, the following set of expansions are given solely for the complete confusion of the mathematically inclined. Heh heh... Since 'a' must be raised to the same power within the enclosed brackets for all three terms, and we attempt to raise all of the terms out side of the enclosed brackets to a power greater than '2'. Then, not only is 'a' being raised to a power greater than '2', but both of the 'b' and 'c' terms external exponents are also being raised to the same power. That is while the 'a' term is only being raised once. The other terms are being raised twice. And in the last equation above it is the 'a' and 'c' terms which are raised twice, while the deuce in the 'b' term is also being raised to a value which is ultimately greater than '4' in it's position. Otherwise, the equation would have to be written THUS: (a^x + 1)^2 - 4 a^x = (a^x - 1)^2 In which case it is only the 'a' and 'c' terms which are raised twice and the actual variable 'a' may be raised to any power at all as long as the 'a' and 'c' terms are only squared. HENCE: c^x - b^x = a^x For no 'x' greater than 2 An extension of this equation written thus: IF: (x + 1)^2/4 + (x^2 - 1)/4 = x (x + 1)/2 OR: (x^2 + 1)^2/4 + (x^4 - 1)/4 = x^2 (x^2 + 1)/2 AND: (x^2 + 1)^2 + x^4 - 1 = 2 x^2 (x^2 + 1) And the last equation above may be written thus: (x^2 - 1)^2 + 4 x^2 + x^4 - 1 = 2 x^2 (x^2 + 1) IF: (a^x - 1)^2 + 4 a^x + (a^x)^2 - 1 = 2 a^x (a^x + 1)... for any value 'a' and power 'x' AND: (a^x - 1)^x + 4 a^x + (a^x)^x - 1 = 2 a^x (a^x + 1)... for no value 'x' greater than 2 OR: (a^x - 1)^x + (2a)^x + (a^x)^x - 1 = 2 a^x (a^x + 1)... for no value 'x' greater than 2 HENCE: a^x + b^x + c^x - 1 = d^(x/x) For no 'x' greater than 2 AGAIN: If the hyperbolic transition is represented thus: IF: (a^x - 1)^2 * ((a^x + 1)^2/(a^x - 1)^2 - 1) = 2^2 a^x THEN: power 'x' can be any value as long as the outer exponent is only squared. SO: a^2 * (c^2/a^2 - 1) = b^2 OR: b^2 * (c^2/b^2 - 1) = a^2 If the hyperbolic transition is represented thus: IF: (a^x - 1)^x * ((a^x + 1)^x/(a^x - 1)^x - 1) = (2a)^x THEN: power 'x' can be no greater than 2 HENCE: The exponent root may be represented thus: (((a^x - 1)/2)^2 * ((a^x + 1)^2/(a^x - 1)^2 - 1))^(1/x) = a... for any value 'a' and exponent 'x' FINALLY: IF: 2^2 x^2 + (x^2 - 1)^2 + x^4 - 1 = 2 x^2 (x^2 + 1) Which demonstrates that the terms must always contain a square root of two raised to an 'even' power. THEN: 2 x^2 (x^2 + 1) - (x^2 - 1)^2 - x^4 + 1 = (x^2 - 1)^2 * ((x^2 + 1)^2/(x^2 - 1)^2 - 1) OR: 2x (x + 1) - (x - 1)^2 - x^2 + 1 = (x - 1)^2 * ((x + 1)^2/(x - 1)^2 - 1) Signed: "LUCKY MAN" Copyright 1996-1997 Visit: http://www.godkings.com Visit: http://www.godkings.com/mainpage.html Visit: http://www.godkings.com/twinprime.txt Visit: http://www.godkings.com/twin.txt Visit: http://www.godkings.com/fermat_theorem.txt Visit: http://www.godkings.com/physics.txt Visit: http://www.godkings.com/quasar.txt Visit: http://www.godkings.com/gravity.txt Visit: http://www.godkings.com/raser.txt Visit: http://www.godkings.com/pseudoprime.txt Visit: http://www.godkings.com/radiogravity2.txt
