Wikipedia notes Andrew Wiles's proof was described as "a stunning advance" in the citation for Wiles's Abel Prize award in 2016, recognition that came two decades after the proof itself. This dimension connects a theorem to the person who finally proved it true.FactsProved BySourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra Of EmergenceWell-attested825 1Proved ByFilter Results53 entriesBranchAllAlgebra (33)Algebraic Geometry (1)Combinatorics (1)Commutative Algebra (6)Field Theory (1)Galois Theory (2)Group Theory (5)Lie Theory (3)Linear Algebra (7)Real Analysis (1)Representation Theory (4)Ring Theory (2)Trigonometry (1)Topic AreaAllField Theory and Galois Theory (4)General and Universal Algebra (1)Group Theory (11)Lie Algebras and Representation Theory (8)Linear Algebra and Matrix Theory (12)Polynomials and Elementary Algebra (13)Ring Theory and Commutative Algebra (11)ProvedAll1591 (1)1637 (1)1654 (1)1666 (1)1750 (1)1799 (1)1801 (1)1807 (2)1824 (1)1829 (1)1845 (1)1850 (1)1852 (1)1854 (1)1855 (1)1861 (2)1869 (1)1870 (1)1872 (1)1878 (1)1890 (1)1893 (1)1898 (1)1899 (1)1900 (1)1904 (1)1905 (2)1907 (2)1909 (1)1910 (1)1921 (1)1926 (2)1927 (3)1928 (1)1929 (1)1931 (1)1940 (1)1945 (1)1948 (1)1950 (2)1951 (1)1956 (1)1961 (1)1963 (2)1966 (1)1973 (1)Named AfterAllArthur Cayley (1)Augustin-Louis Cauchy (1)Carl Friedrich Gauss (1)David Hilbert (1)Emmy Noether (1)Isaac Newton (1)Joseph-Louis Lagrange (2)Statement FormAllCharacterization (18)Classification Theorem (3)Equation (19)Existence Theorem (16)Identity (19)Impossibility Theorem (2)Inequality (10)Uniqueness Theorem (7)Major PrizeAllAbel Prize (1)Fields Medal (2)Wolf Prize (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareAbraham de MoivreProved By1 entryAbraham SeidenbergProved By1 entryAlexander GrothendieckProved By1 entryArthur CayleyProved By2 entriesAugustin-Louis CauchyProved By4 entriesBertram KostantProved By1 entryBlaise PascalProved By1 entryCamille JordanProved By3 entriesCarl Friedrich GaussProved By2 entriesDavid HilbertProved By4 entriesÉlie CartanProved By1 entryEmanuel LaskerProved By1 entryEmil ArtinProved By2 entriesEmmy NoetherProved By3 entriesErnst SteinitzProved By2 entriesErnst WittProved By1 entryEugenio Elia LeviProved By1 entryÉvariste GaloisProved By1 entryFerdinand Georg FrobeniusProved By2 entriesFrançois Budan de BoislaurentProved By1 entryFrançois VièteProved By1 entryGabriel CramerProved By1 entryGiacomo CandidoProved By1 entryGotthold EisensteinProved By1 entryGraham HigmanProved By1 entryHeinrich MaschkeProved By1 entryHenri PoincaréProved By1 entryHermann WeylProved By2 entriesIrvin S.

Al-Khwarizmi provided the first analytical theory for solving equations by classifying them into six standard forms and offering systematic, step-by-step procedures for their solutions.View the SourceComments (0)No comments yet.
