Theorems in number theory | Modular forms | Conjectures that have been proved | Theorems in algebraic geometry | Algebraic curves | Arithmetic geometry
The modularity theorem (formerly called the Taniyama–Shimura conjecture, Taniyama-Weil conjecture or modularity conjecture for elliptic curves) states that elliptic curves over the field of rational numbers are related to modular forms. Andrew Wiles proved the modularity theorem for semistable elliptic curves, which was enough to imply Fermat's Last Theorem. Later, a series of papers by Wiles's former students Brian Conrad, Fred Diamond and Richard Taylor, culminating in a joint paper with Christophe Breuil, extended Wiles's techniques to prove the full modularity theorem in 2001. (Wikipedia).
This lecture is part of an online graduate course on modular forms. We introduce modular forms, and give several examples of how they were used to solve problems in apparently unrelated areas of mathematics. I will not be following any particular book, but if anyone wants a suggestion

Modular forms: Eisenstein series
This lecture is part of an online graduate course on modular forms. We give two ways of looking at modular forms: as functions of lattices in C, or as invariant forms. We use this to give two different ways of constructing Eisenstein series. For the other lectures in the course see http

Henri Darmon: Andrew Wiles' marvelous proof
Abstract: Pierre de Fermat famously claimed to have discovered “a truly marvelous proof” of his last theorem, which the margin in his copy of Diophantus' Arithmetica was too narrow to contain. Fermat's proof (if it ever existed!) is probably lost to posterity forever, while Andrew Wiles' p
