  3. 5 days ago · In 1847, Ernst Kummer made early attempts to prove Fermat's Last Theorem by developing groups describing factorization into prime numbers. The convergence of these various sources into a uniform theory of groups started with Camille Jordan's Traité des substitutions et des équations algébriques (1870).

  7. May 13, 2024 · century, mathematicians like Ernst Kummer proved the theorem for a specific class of numbers [4]. However, a complete solution remained out of reach. Finally, in 1994, Andrew Wiles, a British mathematician, announced a proof for Fermat’s Last Theorem. The proof was incredibly complex, drawing on advanced areas of mathematics like elliptic curves.
