One theorem named after this man, also known as Thue's Lemma and sometimes combining his name with Euler, states that if p is a prime number congruent to one mod four, then it can be expressed as x squared plus y squared, where x and y are integers, exactly one way.
One theorem named after this man, also known as Thue's Lemma and sometimes combining his name with Euler, states that if p is a prime number congruent to one mod four, then it can be expressed as x squared plus y squared, where x and y are integers, exactly one way. Another theorem named after him states that if p is a prime number, then the difference m to the p minus m is evenly divisible by p. He was a contemporary of Descartes who also worked on analytical geometry. Name this mathematician whose most famous theorem was proved in 1995 by Princeton professor Andrew Wiles; it states that for n greater than 2 there are no natural number solutions to A to the N plus B to the N equals C to the N.
