Fermat's Last Theorem: Solved after 350 years! ???? In this video, we look at one of the most famous mathematical puzzles of all time: Fermat's Last Theorem. For centuries, this problem was considered unsolvable and pushed mathematicians around the world to their limits - until it was finally cracked in 1994 by Andrew Wiles' brilliant proof. ????✨ We explore the fascinating story behind the theorem, how it began as a "side note" by Pierre de Fermat and has occupied the brightest minds in mathematics over the centuries. What is behind the mysterious claim that Fermat recorded in the pages of Arithmetica? ???? From Pythagorean triples and Euler's legendary experiments to the final breakthrough through modern mathematics, we go through the developments step by step. But don't worry - you don't need to have a math degree to understand the basic idea of this proof! ???? Find out how the famous "modularity theorem" played the decisive role and why the search for an elementary proof still fascinates mathematicians and amateur researchers today. ????????
