Short description: Japanese mathematician
Taro Morishima (森嶋 太郎 Morishima Tarō, 1903 – 1989) was a Japanese mathematician specializing in algebra who attended University of Tokyo in Japan . Morishima published at least thirteen papers, including his work on Fermat's Last Theorem.[1] and a collected works volume published in 1990 after his death.[2] He also corresponded several times with United States mathematician H. S. Vandiver.[3]
Morishima's Theorem on FLT
- Let m be a prime number not exceeding 31. Let p be prime, and let x, y, z be integers such that xp + yp + zp = 0. Assume that p does not divide the product xyz. Then, p² must divide mp − 1-1.
Review
Granville wrote that Morishima's proof could not be accepted. [1]
