A bottom-up approach to formalisation in the FLT project

Salvatore Mercuri (Imperial College London)

Thu Jan 22, 17:00-17:30 (4 weeks ago)

Abstract: This talk will describe a collaborative multi-author project to develop foundational material required for the formalisation of the proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem. The culmination of this project is a sorry-free proof that a certain space of automorphic cusp forms is finite-dimensional. We will report on the overall status of this project, with a particular focus on the adele ring sub-project, as well as the ongoing efforts to upstream our results to mathlib.
