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.19th centuryConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)19th centuryFilter Results126 entriesBranchAllAlgebra (15)Algebraic Geometry (2)Algebraic Number Theory (1)Analysis (22)Analytic Number Theory (1)Combinatorics (2)Complex Analysis (6)Differential Equations (3)Differential Geometry (1)Differential Topology (1)Discrete Geometry (1)Dynamical Systems (1)Galois Theory (1)Geometry (16)Graph Theory (4)Group Theory (2)Harmonic Analysis (1)Lie Theory (1)Logic and Foundations (4)Mathematical Physics (10)Number Theory (22)Optimization (1)Probability and Statistics (2)Real Analysis (2)Representation Theory (1)Topology (3)Trigonometry (1)Topic AreaAllAdditive Number Theory (3)Algebraic Geometry (1)Algebraic Number Theory (3)Algebraic Topology (2)Analytic Number Theory (2)Approximation Theory (1)Class Field Theory (2)Classical Euclidean Geometry (6)Classical Mechanics and Dynamics (4)Combinatorial Number Theory (4)Complex Analysis (9)Congruences and Modular Arithmetic (1)Convex Analysis (1)Convex and Discrete Geometry (2)Differential Equations (3)Differential Geometry (3)Diophantine Equations (3)Economic Theory (1)Electromagnetism, Optics and Continuum Mechanics (6)Enumerative, Additive and Algebraic Combinatorics (3)Field Theory and Galois Theory (2)Fourier and Harmonic Analysis (1)Functional Analysis (3)Geometric and Differential Topology (2)Graph Theory (4)Group Theory (4)Lie Algebras and Representation Theory (3)Linear Algebra and Matrix Theory (2)Mathematical Logic and Model Theory (1)Polyhedra and Polytopes (1)Polynomials and Elementary Algebra (4)Prime Number Distribution (4)Probability Theory (2)Projective Geometry (1)Proof Theory and Methods of Proof (1)Quadratic Forms and Reciprocity (2)Real Analysis (14)Ring Theory and Commutative Algebra (3)Set Theory (2)Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics (3)Triangle and Circle Geometry (5)Proved ByAllAbraham de Moivre (1)Aleksandr Lyapunov (1)Arthur Cayley (3)Augustin-Louis Cauchy (10)Augustus De Morgan (1)Bernard Bolzano (2)Bernhard Riemann (2)Camille Jordan (3)Carl Anton Bretschneider (1)Carl Friedrich Gauss (7)Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi (1)Carl Runge (1)Charles-Jean de la Vallee Poussin (1)David Hilbert (5)Désiré André (1)Edward John Routh (1)Enrico Betti (1)Ernst Kummer (1)Ernst Zermelo (1)Felix Hausdorff (1)Ferdinand Georg Frobenius (2)Frank Morley (1)Franz Mertens (1)François Budan de Boislaurent (1)Gaston Darboux (2)Georg Alexander Pick (1)Georg Cantor (2)George Gabriel Stokes (1)Gotthold Eisenstein (1)Gottlob Frege (1)Gustav Kirchhoff (1)Gösta Mittag-Leffler (1)Heinrich Martin Weber (1)Heinrich Maschke (1)Henri Poincaré (4)Hermann Minkowski (1)Jacques Charles François Sturm (1)Jacques Hadamard (1)Jakob Steiner (1)James Joseph Sylvester (1)Joseph Bertrand (1)Joseph Fourier (1)Joseph Liouville (1)Joseph Wolstenholme (1)Joseph-Louis Lagrange (2)Joseph-Émile Barbier (1)Julius Petersen (1)Karl von Staudt (1)Karl Weierstrass (5)L.
