The discussion confirms that Fermat's Equation, represented as an + bn = cn for n > 2, cannot be solved using non-positive integers. The participants clarify that even with negative integers, the equation can be rearranged to yield positive integer solutions. Specifically, for even n, the equation holds true as negative values can be converted to their positive counterparts. For odd n, the same principle applies, demonstrating that any solution involving negative integers can be transformed into a solution involving positive integers.
PREREQUISITESMathematicians, students studying number theory, and anyone interested in the properties of integer solutions to polynomial equations.
