Wikipedia records that "after 358 years of effort by mathematicians, the first successful proof was released in 1994 by Andrew Wiles and formally published in 1995." Browsing by proved year shows how long a stated theorem can wait before a genuine proof arrives.18th centuryConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)18th centuryFilter Results35 entriesBranchAllAlgebra (2)Analysis (4)Arithmetic (1)Geometry (10)Graph Theory (1)Linear Algebra (1)Mathematical Physics (2)Number Theory (11)Probability and Statistics (4)Topic AreaAllAdditive Number Theory (4)Algebraic Geometry (1)Classical Euclidean Geometry (6)Classical Mechanics and Dynamics (2)Complex Analysis (1)Congruences and Modular Arithmetic (3)Diophantine Equations (2)Fourier and Harmonic Analysis (1)Graph Theory (1)Linear Algebra and Matrix Theory (1)Polyhedra and Polytopes (1)Polynomials and Elementary Algebra (1)Prime Number Distribution (1)Probability Theory (3)Quadratic Forms and Reciprocity (1)Real Analysis (3)Social Choice and Voting Theory (1)Triangle and Circle Geometry (2)Proved ByAllAbraham de Moivre (1)Adrien-Marie Legendre (1)Alexis Claude Clairaut (1)Brook Taylor (1)Carl Friedrich Gauss (2)Charles Hermite (1)Euclid (1)Gabriel Cramer (1)Giovanni Girolamo Saccheri (1)Jacob Bernoulli (1)Jakob Steiner (1)Joseph-Louis Lagrange (2)Leonhard Euler (11)Marc-Antoine Parseval (1)Marquis de Condorcet (1)Pierre de Fermat (1)Pierre Varignon (1)Pierre-Simon Laplace (2)Pietro Mengoli (1)Robert Simson (1)Thomas Bayes (1)Étienne Bézout (1)Named AfterAllAdrien-Marie Legendre (1)Joseph-Louis Lagrange (1)Leonhard Euler (5)Pierre de Fermat (2)Statement FormAllCharacterization Theorem (11)Existence Theorem (7)Identity or Equation (15)Inequality (2)Uniqueness Theorem (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 350.999...18th centuryBasel Problem18th centuryBayes' Theorem18th centuryBezout's Theorem18th centuryClairaut's Theorem (Gravity)18th centuryCondorcet Jury Theorem18th centuryConstructibility of the Regular Heptadecagon18th centuryCramer's Rule18th centuryDe Moivre-Laplace Theorem18th centuryEuclid-Euler Theorem18th centuryEuler's Criterion18th centuryEuler's Identity18th centuryEuler's Polyhedron Formula18th centuryEuler's Rotation Theorem18th centuryEuler's Theorem (Totient)18th centuryFermat's Little Theorem18th centuryFermat's Theorem on Sums of Two Squares18th centuryFundamental Theorem of Algebra18th centuryHandshaking Lemma18th centuryKonig's Theorem (Kinetics)18th centuryLagrange's Four-Square Theorem18th centuryLaw of Large Numbers18th centuryLegendre's Three-Square Theorem18th centuryMohr-Mascheroni Theorem18th centuryParseval's Theorem18th centuryPentagonal Number Theorem18th centuryPitot Theorem18th centuryProof That e Is Irrational18th centuryProof that Pi is Irrational18th centurySaccheri-Legendre Theorem18th centurySimson Line Theorem18th centuryStewart's Theorem18th centuryTaylor's Theorem18th centuryVarignon's Theorem18th centuryWilson's Theorem18th centuryConnectionsShowing the first 400 of 908 connections.SourcesMacTutor History of Mathematics Archivetier 1University of St Andrews, School of Mathematics and StatisticsContains: Central Limit TheoremContains: Bayes' TheoremView the SourceWikipedia: Noether's Theoremtier 2Wikimedia FoundationContains: Noether's TheoremView the SourceWikipedia: Cayley's Theoremtier 2Wikimedia FoundationContains: Cayley's TheoremView the SourceComments (0)No comments yet.
