パンサー尾形貴弘が数学の難問を大真面目に解説する「笑わない数学」。数学史上最大のミステリーと呼ばれた「フェルマーの最終定理」。超難問はどのように解けたのか！？
１７世紀、フランスの天才数学者フェルマーは、あるメモを書き残した。「“ｘのｎ乗＋ｙのｎ乗＝ｚのｎ乗”を満たす自然数ｘ、ｙ、ｚは存在しない（ｎは３以上）」。ところが、これが正しいことを示す証明が「紙の余白がない」という理由で残されていなかったのだ。果たして、フェルマーの言葉は正しいのか？中学生でも理解できるこの問題に、多くの数学者たちが挑戦し、敗れ去った。証明に至るまで３５０年、苦闘のドラマを描く。
Panther Takahiro Ogata explains difficult mathematical problems in a very serious manner in "Mathematics without Laughter." Fermat's Last Theorem was called the greatest mystery in the history of mathematics. How was the extremely difficult problem finally solved!? In the 17th century, Fermat, a genius mathematician in France, left a note: "There are no natural numbers (1, 2, 3,…) x, y, and z such that x^n + y^n = z^n, in which n is a natural number greater than 2." However, there was no proof left to show that this was correct because "there was no margin on the paper." Is Fermat's statement really correct? Many mathematicians have tried to solve this problem, which even a junior high school student could understand, but failed. This film depicts the drama of the 350-year struggle to reach the proof.
