This is a project to hold a five-day Research Symposium on Fermat's Last Theorem. Recent results on this famous unsolved conjecture argue that this is a felicitous time for such a Symposium. The Symposium will be built around ten lectures -- two each day -- by Professor John Tate of Harvard University. In addition, there will be sessions organized by Professor John Selfridge of Northern Illinois University on numerical approaches to the conjecture. Finally, there will be sessions for contributed papers, research ideas, and discussion. The wealth of mathematics that has been engendered by attempts to settle Fermat's Last Theorem is staggering, and recent results have led to generalizations and more conjectures related to the problem. These provide fertile grounds for more research ideas, and they will be explored in the course of the Tate lectures and the attendant Symposium activities. The sessions will be videotaped.

这是一个为期五天的费马大定理研究研讨会的项目。关于这一著名的未解猜想的最新结果表明，现在是召开这样一次研讨会的合适时机。研讨会将围绕哈佛大学教授约翰·泰特的十场讲座展开，每天两场。此外，北伊利诺伊大学的约翰·塞尔弗里奇教授将组织会议，讨论如何用数值方法来解释这一猜想。最后，将有发表的论文、研究思路和讨论的会议。试图解决费马大定理所产生的数学财富是惊人的，最近的结果导致了与这一问题相关的概括和更多的猜测。这些为更多的研究想法提供了肥沃的土壤，这些想法将在泰特讲座和随之而来的研讨会活动中得到探索。会议将被录像。
