How Was Fermat’s Last Theorem Proved for Regular Primes?

More on rings: (mathematics). The detailed proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem for regular primes can be found in a very well-written article by Keith Conrad: ...And another good source: ~ila/. The original approach by Lamé (which outlines an overall erroneous proof but nevertheless provides the valuable decomposition of the left side of the Fermat’s equation; in French): :/12148/bpt6k29812/. ...And English commentary to the article above: An interesting thread on (non-)unique factorization in cyclotomic rings of integers: Overview of progression on Fermat’s Last Theorem over time: ’s_Last_Theor
