Nope, definitely not
From http://cgd.best.vwh.net/home/flt/flt01.htm it seem that this site has the proof http://www.math.princeton.edu/~annals/i … 141_3.html but it seems that you can only get access to the article through certain universities.
I do not think he is ever goint to reply back. It has been about 30 hours now.
I think this link would help http://www.mbay.net/~cgd/flt/flt08.htm
Funny, we never heard back from the person who asked the question.
I will like to play
Is Wink Murdur happening anymore?
thanks, krassi_holmz
glad to help
You are correct, siva.eas.
I posted that in a hurry. A minor mistake. The first move should be
1. e4, e6
It still would not work, white cold block the check by moving its bishop to f7.
Let
squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(...) = x
[squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(...)]^2 = x^2
(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(...) = x^2
(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(...) = x^2 - 1
As we already said, squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(squr(1+(...) = x
so
x = x^2 -1
x^2 - x - 1 = 0
From the quadratic formula
x = (-(-1) + squr( 1 - 4*1*(-1)))/(2*1) or x = (-(-1) - squr( 1 - 4*1*(-1)))/(2*1)
x = (1+ squr (5))/2 or x = (1 - squr (5))/2
x = 1.618 or x = -0.618
x = -0.618 won't work since it is negative number, so the sum is 1.618.
Why is six afraid of seven?
Because seven eight nine.( hint: eight sounds almost like 'ate')
Here's how must the chessboard look like:
It cannot be overlayed with 31 domino pieces because the square that are taken apart are both black pieces. As a result there will be thirty two white pieces and 30 black square, making it impossible for 31 domino pieces to cover the unequal number of white and black squares.
I don't get the answer to the third problem. How could the black queen get to the h4 square when the black pawn at e7 is blocking it.
This will be the position after 2. f4.
I think the shortest possible game is
1. e4, f5
2. Nc3, g5
3. Qh5++
Here is a problem for the world's best and the brightest to ponder about? Can anyone answer the following questions.

d) If João is Pedros son, João was born after Pedro.
e) The choices a and b are correct.
f) The choices a and c are correct.
g) The choices a and d are correct.
h) The choices b and c are correct.
i) The choices b and d are correct.
j) The choices c and d are correct.
k) The choices a, b and c are correct.
l) The choices a, b and d are correct.
m) The choices a, c and d are correct.
n) The choices b, c and d are correct.
o) All the above are correct.
p) None of the above is correct.

I got a suggestion we could play chess on the board with writing out our moves on the forum using the chess alegrebraic notation.
Does anyone here play chess
Just curious are you taking the Cayley Contest by any chance since you are interested enough to try some of the problem? John E. Franklin
Will anyone here be writing the Cayley Contest for mathematics in the February of 2006?
Has everyone stopped posting in this forum.
The Field Medal awarders also gave award only once for a person over forty years ago. It was to Andrew Wiles who received the silver plague for solving the Fermat's Last Theorm which has kept many of the finest mathematicians for many centuries.
