Chevalley's class number formula, unit equations and the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem

Nuno Freitas, Alain Kraus, Samir Siksek

Let be a number field and its ring of integers. We use Chevalley's ambiguous class number formula to give a criterion for the non-existence of solutions to the…

On Asymptotic Fermat over extensions of

Nuno Freitas, Alain Kraus, Samir Siksek

Let be a prime and let denote the -th layer of the cyclotomic -extension of . We show that has no excep…

Class field theory, Diophantine analysis and the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem

Nuno Freitas, Alain Kraus, Samir Siksek

Recent results of Freitas, Kraus, Sengun and Siksek, give sufficient criteria for the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem to hold over a specific number field. Those works in turn bui…

On the degree of the -torsion field of elliptic curves over for

Nuno Freitas, Alain Kraus

Let and be distinct prime numbers. Let be an elliptic curve with -torsion module . Let be the -torsion f…

Quartic points on the Fermat quintic

Alain Kraus

In this paper, we study the algebraic points of degree over on the Fermat curve of equation . A geometrical description of these po…

An application of the symplectic argument to some Fermat-type Equations

Nuno Freitas, Alain Kraus

Let be a prime number. In the early 2000s, it was proved that the Fermat equations with coefficients \[3x^p + 8y^p + 21z^p =0\quad \text{ and } \quad 3x^p + 4y^p + 5z^p=0 \] do…
