It's awesome. Though I prefer my Bronshtein :D https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronshtein_and_Semendyayev

#52Nice touch: 4.15 FERMAT’S LAST THEOREM: ... General case when n>2 was proved by Andrew Wiles (1994). The proof is too long to be written here. See: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~anindya/fermat.pdf
Link's unfortunately broken :(

#53I remember using something similar called "Mathematics Handbook for Science and Engineering" in university. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mathematics-Handbook-Science-Engine...
I assume there are many others, and this is a free alternative.

Fermat wrote that in the margin of his book Arithmetica that a proof existed, but there wasn’t space in the margin to write it. It took Wiles 385 years to find a proof, and it won’t fit in a margin. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat%27s_Last_Theorem That’s the allure of the theorem; that a simple unknown proof may exist.
Yes, I remember when news of his proof broke, being disappointed at how voluminous and obscure (to someone like me) it was. I'd been hoping for something I might be able to get my head around. (Hard as it was, I don't think Wiles spent 385 years coming up with it btw!)
Whether there is an existing and verified proof or not, there is still a great mystery to be solved by figuring out what Fermat actually meant by what he thought as an elegant solution, whether it is an actual solution or not.

#55Seems very similar to a classic formula collection like https://dlmf.nist.gov/

#57Cheat-sheet we were allowed to use during math exams at university:
Theoretical Computer Science Cheat Sheet https://www.tug.org/texshowcase/cheat.pdf
It's 10 pages, so 3 papers with one page free for something that might be missing.

#58It's organized like a debate file. Fascinating.

Well, it could have been like Kempe's chains... they finally realized there is a problem, and then it took like 100 years before Appel and Haken made what is probably the first computer-aided proof. And who can say it's really a "proof" if it doesn't explain "why" it's true.
