Mathematician Leonhard Euler’s Refutation of Pierre de Fermat’s Conjecture
(3 Pages, 35.85 USD)
|
|
This is a 3 page paper discussing Euler’s refutation of Fermat’s conjecture. In 1637, French lawyer Pierre de Fermat wrote that he had “discovered a truly marvelous proof which this margin is too narrow to contain” in regards to a mathematical statement which had been unproven for over 1000 years. The basis of Fermat’s (“Last”) theorem or conjecture began with that of the Pythagoras equation [x.sup.2] + [y.sup.2] = [z.sup.2] which he proved “had an infinite set of whole number solutions” which related to the lengths of the sides of a right-angled triangle. Pythagoras did not know “how many solutions existed if the exponent in his equation were a number greater than 2”. Fermat claimed that “for any exponent greater than 2, there were no solutions at all”. During his lifetime however, Fermat often did not supply “proofs” of many of his theorems but many mathematicians since his time have been able to prove his claims to be correct except for that in relation to the Pythagoras equation. Swiss mathematician Leonard Euler (1707-1783) did however work further on many of Fermat’s theorems and “later proved that there are no solutions when the exponent is 3” and “unfortunately, an infinite number of cases remained and the case-by-case method was doomed to fail”. While Fermat’s Last Theorem proved to be difficult to prove, Euler managed to disprove and refute other assertions such as “2^(2^n) = p, where p is a prime number” and found that it is only true for the first four cases provided by Fermat.

Stem Cell Research: the Science and the Ethics
(12 Pages, 143.4 USD)
|
|
A 12 page overview of stem cell research and the potentially wonderful applications that research could be applied to in the future. The author emphasizes, however, that stem cell utilization requires the harvest of cells. The primary donors are aborted fetuses. The contention is presented that until that limitation can be overcome, stem cell applications are unethical in that they depend on taking the life of one individual to enhance the life of another. Bibliography lists 15 sources.
