Japanese mathematician offers answer to unsolved problem
Yoichi Miyaoka, 38, claims a proof of Fermat's Last Theorem found at the Max Planck Institute in Bonn. Mathematicians in Germany, France, and the United States are checking the work, historically opening new fields in math with past attempts. Miyaoka builds on A N Parshin while noting Fermat’s original claim likely lacked a correct proof.
