62-year-old professor of Oxford university sir Andrew Wiles was awarded with Abel Prize of Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters for Fermat theorem proving. This problem has bothered mathematicians from all over the world for several hundreds of years.
Published in 1637, the theorem states that there are no decisions in whole numbers in equation of the form x^n+y^n=z^n if n is more than 2». French mathematician Pier de Fermat wrote that had proved his own theorem, but this proving was not made public.
‘For me it is a significant honor to receive Abel Prize and connect to the former laureates who made such prominent contributions in the mathematicians. The equation of Fermat has been the passion of all my life since the verily early age, but its decision gave me an inexpressible feeling of satisfaction. I hope that my decision of agelong issue inspired young people to tackle mathematics and work over other problems of this beautiful and exciting discipline’.
As sir Andrew Wiles told, he solved the equation in 1994 and even published his proving. However, his achievement was perceived as epochal one only now.
