چکیده

On June 23, 1993, Andrew Wiles unveiled his strategy for proving the Shimura-Taniyama-Weil conjecture for semistable elliptic curves defined over the field Q of rational numbers. Thanks to the work of Gerhard Frey, Jean-Pierre Serre, and Kenneth Ribet, this was known to imply Fermat’s Last Theorem. Six years later Christophe Breuil, Brian Conrad, Fred Diamond, and Richard Taylor have finally announced a proof of the full ShimuraTaniyama-Weil conjecture for all elliptic curves over Q.

The Shimura-taniyama Conjecture and Conformal Field Theory

The Shimura-Taniyama conjecture states that the Mellin transform of the Hasse-Weil Lfunction of any elliptic curve defined over the rational numbers is a modular form. Recent work of Wiles, Taylor-Wiles and Breuil-Conrad-Diamond-Taylor has provided a proof of this longstanding conjecture. Elliptic curves provide the simplest framework for a class of CalabiYau manifolds which have been conjectur...

A Report on Wiles’ Cambridge Lectures

In lectures at the Newton Institute in June of 1993, Andrew Wiles announced a proof of a large part of the Taniyama-Shimura Conjecture and, as a consequence, Fermat’s Last Theorem. This report for nonexperts discusses the mathematics involved in Wiles’ lectures, including the necessary background and the mathematical history.

The Shimura-taniyama Conjecture

ferred to in the literature as the Shimura-Taniyama-Weil conjecture, the Taniyama-Shimura conjecture, the Taniyama-Weil conjecture, or the modularity conjecture, it postulates a deep connection between elliptic curves over the rational numbers and modular forms. It has now been almost completely proved thanks to the fundamental work of A. Wiles and R. Taylor [W], [TW], and its further refinemen...
