Fermat's Last Theorem | Jordan Ellenberg and Lex Fridman

[@toastersman217]

Hey Lex! It would be difficult to do, but I would recommend you to invite Cedric Villani. He is a Fields medalist and a well knowned mathmatician. He is really interesting and was on Numberphile channel a couple of times.

[@markcarey67]

He has a great Royal Institution lecture on John Nash's theorems in geometry

Cedric Villani would be great, he is such an interesting character.

So good! Thank you for always bringing great guests on to show .

The unique factorization of positive integers into primes is also the reason why all musical tuning systems are approximate if they involve more than one key. A cycle of fifths (3/2^n) never meets up quite with a cycle of octaves (2^n) or a cycle of thirds (5/4^n).

[@alientube1984]

Why am I all of a sudden interested in prime numbers first time in 40 years!

[@HigherPlanes]

Same here. Probably because we spend too much time on youtube and get exposed to things we may otherwise not be exposed to.

[@ben.p]

Prime factorization as atoms and molecules was a fun metaphor

[@nickfeiler375]

Keep up the good work. You seem to get more comfortable as a interviewer/host. Love to see that!

[@jonc6157]

Great Vid !

[@aadilansari5997]

The conversation was interrupted, complex numbers do not have unique factorisation. A set of even numbers do not have unique factorisation.

Are you talking about distance... or similarity ?

[@georgeice4389]

HI LEX, Like to say again: You Tube Will Rhee and choose the video which mentions Fermat . Afterwards think back to what your guests mathematicians had to say about FLT. HAVE FUN!

[@Srsbzns_5150]

Let's skip all that and just tell us what your thinking?

@@Srsbzns_5150 LEX WILL SEE HOW NAIVE ARE HIS MATHEMATICIAN GUESTS WHEN THEY IMPLY HOW HARDTHE FLT PROBLEM WAS TO SOLVE AND HOW GULLIBLE THEY ARE BEILIVING IN THAT MYTH.

This guy is way way way too happy to talk about math lol

I can pronounce the Formula for the proof of Fermath's Great Theorem: 1 - Fermath's great theorem NEVER! and nobody! NOT! HAS BEEN PROVEN !!! 2 - proven! THE ONLY POSSIBLE proof of Fermat's theorem 3 - Fermath's great theorem is proved universally-proven for all numbers 4 - Fermath's great theorem is proven in the requirements of himself! Fermata 1637 y. 5 - Fermath's great theorem proved in 2 pages of a notebook !!!!!!!!

I think you've hit your head. Go see a doctor!

[@TheEmergingPattern]

Interesting, trying to really understand it is futile and only for the genious that don't have real life problems. I quit. Better to ask what one can do additionally by looking at something from the p-adic perspective
