Re: Fermat's Last theorem short proof

I think you will find yourself between a rock and a hard place following a course that insists on "factors-in-common." The rock is FLT and the hard place is The Beal Conjecture: "(A^x) + (B^y) = (C^z) must have factors in common." So far it has defied proof, but those that have been found do satisfy the Conjecture. Having taken this route to a proof, you now have to dispute one to prove the other. This is a true "double-bind" that is not therapeutic. It is far more likely that you may prove Beal - and if you do, there is a pay-off - he is still alive and has posted a reward for a proof that is accepted as true. Good Luck.
