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-attested1950 1Proved ByFilter Results55 entriesBranchAllCoding Theory (1)Combinatorics (26)Computational Complexity Theory (1)Geometry (1)Graph Theory (27)Group Theory (2)Linear Algebra (2)Logic and Foundations (1)Number Theory (2)Set Theory (1)Topic AreaAllCombinatorics of Computing and Classification (1)Enumerative, Additive and Algebraic Combinatorics (21)Graph Theory (30)Ramsey Theory and Extremal Combinatorics (6)ProvedAll1736 (1)1847 (1)1860 (1)1878 (2)1890 (1)1891 (1)1897 (2)1916 (1)1922 (1)1927 (3)1928 (1)1930 (2)1935 (2)1936 (1)1937 (1)1939 (1)1940 (1)1941 (2)1946 (2)1948 (1)1949 (2)1950 (1)1952 (1)1954 (2)1955 (1)1956 (1)1957 (1)1958 (2)1960 (3)1961 (3)1964 (1)1968 (3)1970 (1)1971 (1)1972 (2)1973 (1)1974 (1)1975 (2)1978 (1)1982 (1)1990 (1)1994 (1)2002 (2)2004 (2)2019 (1)Named AfterAllArthur Cayley (1)Edgar Gilbert (1)Niels Henrik Abel (1)Statement FormAllCharacterization (16)Equation (16)Existence Theorem (18)Identity (16)Impossibility Theorem (2)Inequality (16)Uniqueness Theorem (1)Proved By (Other Fields)AllGustav Kirchhoff (1)Major PrizeAllAbel Prize (2)Wolf Prize (2)Show ResultsBrowseCompareAnton KotzigProved By1 entryArthur CayleyProved By1 entryAugustin-Louis CauchyProved By1 entryBartel Leendert van der WaerdenProved By1 entryBruno CourcelleProved By1 entryClaude BergeProved By2 entriesDésiré AndréProved By1 entryEdgar GilbertProved By1 entryEmanuel GrinbergProved By1 entryEmanuel SpernerProved By2 entriesEndre SzemerédiProved By4 entriesErnst SteinitzProved By1 entryFerdinand Georg FrobeniusProved By1 entryFrank P.
