Description:At some point within the years between 1637 and 1643 Pierre de Fermat scribbled in the margin of his copy of the ancient Greek text Arithmetica by Diophantus that he has found a nice little proof to the fact that the equation x^n+y^n=z^n does not have integer solutions for all n, x, y, z for n>2. This theorem was not proven until 1994. The proof was found by Andrew Wiles and Richard Taylor. Unfortunately, the proof found by Wiles and Taylor was by far too lengthy (almost 100 pages without attachments) and too complicated to have ever been the one Fermat might have meant in his statement. In addition, the techniques Wiles and Tayler had used were all results of modern mathematics and thus, Fermat could never had have access to such knowledge. So, the community has asked quite often, did Fermat lie about his nice little proof or is there an alternative and much simpler way, nobody has seen so far? Today the author was given a one sheet of paper text with an interesting idea for a proof of Fermat’s theorem. As the author was not immediately able to see a mistake he decided to publish the idea and leave it to the community of true mathematicians to find the error as sure there must be one. The original text of Fermat's statement, written in Latin, reads (http://mathworld.wolfram.com/FermatsL... "Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadrato-quadratum in duos quadrato-quadratos, et generaliter nullam in infinitum ultra quadratum potestatem in duos eiusdem nominis fas est dividere cuius rei demonstrationem mirabilem sane detexi. Hanc marginis exiguitas non caperet."
