Franz;; now I understand the equation you are working with is the cubic curve
y^2 = x(x-a^n)(x+b^n)
and that if a^n +b^n = c^n had a solution, would be impossible since they are coprime.
De-Wiles;; Nay Franz, impossible because of modularity.
Franz;; is coprime different than modularity
De-Wiles:: Nonmodularity.
Franz;; now I am confused, for if there exists a solution to a^n +b^n = c^n then there is something peculiar with y^2 = x(x-a^n)(x+b^n).
De-Wiles;; yes, and this oddity is called nonmodularity.
Franz;; So, you are basing an entire proof on saying a formula is either normal or is strange and if strange you call it nonmodular
De-Wiles;; yes, if strange, if odd if peculiar, if weird, if freakish, math calls it nonmodular.
Franz:: so define nonmodular, for us.
De-Wiles;; not normal
Franz:: but who is to judge if something is not normal
De-Wiles;; well, if we want to say we proved FLT that is normal and modular. And if you were to deny our wish to prove FLT, that is weird and strange and is nonmodular.
Franz;; But can you define modular and nonmodular in terms of mathematics.
De-Wiles;; yes, if we have a solution of a^n +b^n = c^n then our formula y^2 = x(x-a^n)(x+b^n) barks at night, keeping the kids awake.
Franz;; Oh, so, like in Euler's fake proof of n=3 where he uses odd,odd,even and never even mentions even,even,even.
De-Wiles;; yes, yes, Nonmodular means the odd,odd,even is looking like even,even,even
Franz:: So what did you call odd,odd,even and call even,even,even in your proof.
De-Wiles;; we called it coprime.
