Analytic number theory | Figurate numbers | Additive number theory | Theorems in number theory
In additive number theory, the Fermat polygonal number theorem states that every positive integer is a sum of at most n n-gonal numbers. That is, every positive integer can be written as the sum of three or fewer triangular numbers, and as the sum of four or fewer square numbers, and as the sum of five or fewer pentagonal numbers, and so on. That is, the n-gonal numbers form an additive basis of order n. (Wikipedia).
Theory of numbers: Fermat's theorem
This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We prove Fermat's theorem a^p = a mod p. We then define the order of a number mod p and use Fermat's theorem to show the order of a divides p-1. We apply this to testing some Fermat and Mersenne numbers to se

Number Theory | A very special case of Fermat's Last Theorem
We prove a very simple case of Fermat's Last Theorem. Interestingly, this case is fairly easy to prove which highlights the allure of the theorem as a whole -- especially given the fact that much of modern number theory was developed as part of the program that ended in the full proof. ht

Fermat's Little Theorem ← Number Theory
Fermat's Little Theorem was observed by Fermat and proven by Euler, who generalized the theorem significantly. This theorem aids in dividing extremely large numbers and can aid in testing numbers to see if they are prime. For more advanced students, this theorem can be easily proven usin

Fermat's Last Theorem for rational and irrational exponents
Fermat's Last Theorem states the equation x^n + y^n = z^n has no integer solutions for positive integer exponents greater than 2. However, Fermat's Last Theorem says nothing about exponents that are not positive integers. Note: x, y and z are meant to be positive integers, which I should
