Review text

The author proposes the following general problem: Let \(d\) be a positive integer, prove that there exists \(n_0(d)\geq d\) such that if \(K\) is a number field of degree \(d\) then the equation \(x^n+y^n=z^n\) has no solution \((x,y,z)\in K^*\times K^*\times K^*\) for \(n\geq n_0(d)\). He also proposes the conjecture \(n_0(2)=5\), it is known that \(n_0(2)\geq 5\). Notice that the statement \(n_0(1)=3\) is just the Fermat-Wiles Theorem. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0910.00037].
