One theorem named after this person states which prime numbers can be expressed as the sum of   two perfect squares.
One theorem named after this person states which prime numbers can be expressed as the sum of   two perfect squares. A letter from this person to Torricelli explained how to find a point that is a  minimum total distance from three fixed points. Another of his theorems was proven by applying the   epsilon conjecture, now known as Ribet's theorem, which demonstrated that the Taniyama-Shimura  conjecture implied that that theorem was true. Name this mathematician whose statement that  𝑎𝑛 \+ 𝑏𝑛 ["𝑎  to the 𝑛  plus 𝑏  to the 𝑛"] cannot equal 𝑐𝑛 ["𝑐  to the 𝑛"] for an integer 𝑛  greater than two was proven by Andrew Wiles and is known as his last "theorem".
