Elliptic Curves, Modular Forms and Fermat's Last Theorem, 2nd

Elliptic Curves, Modular Forms and Fermat's Last Theorem, 2nd Edition (2010 re-issue)

The conference, held at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, on which these proceedings are based was organized in response to Andrew Wiles' conjecture that every elliptic curve over Q is modular. The final difficulties in the proof of the conjectural upper bound for the order of the Selmer group attached to the symmetric square of a modular form, have since been overcome by Wiles with the assistance of R. Taylor. The proof that every semi-stable elliptic curve over Q is modular is not only significant in the study of elliptic curves, but also due to the earlier work of Frey, Ribet, and others, completes a proof of Fermat's last theorem. New paperback re-issue of the revised second edition. CONTENTS Foreword by John Coates and Shing-Tung Yau Fermat's Last Theorem (by H. Darmon, F. Diamond, R.
