FLT-5 Case 2: If a^5+b^5=c^5 (integers), gcd(a,b)=1, and 5 divides c, then contradiction. This is the harder case of FLT-5, proved by Dirichlet (1825) using infinite descent: from 5|c one shows 5^4|(a+b), and the coprime factor structure forces a smaller FLT-5 solution, contradicting well-ordering.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
