Abstract
Abstract: When historians come to judge the mathematics of the twentieth century, I am confident that they will regard it as a golden age, for both the emergence of brilliant new ideas and the solution of longstanding problems (the two are, of course, not unrelated). In the latter category, Fermat’s Last Theorem (FLT) is neither the most ancient nor the latest example. In the late 1990s, Thomas Hales solved Kepler’s Sphere-Packing Problem, posed in 1611, and Grigori Perelman proved the Poincaré Conjecture, proposed in 1904. Of course, the Riemann Hypothesis, the Goldbach Conjecture, and other outstanding problems are still unresolved.
