We did not get the beginning of this discussion, so pardon me if this is
repetitious.  Those interested in published proofs of Fermats Last Theorem
should see:

Yahya, Q. "Fermat's Last Theorem- A Topological Verification",
Portugaliae Mathematica, 26 (1977) p.25

Yahya, Q. "On General Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem-- Epilogue",
Portugaliae Mathematica, 35 (1976) p.9

Yahya, Q. "On General Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem",
Portugaliae Mathematica, 32 (1973) p.157

Q. A. M. M. Yahya is with the "Defence Science Organization", Dacca, Bangladesh.
Someone at the Arizona State University Math Dept found this publication
and pointed out that the author's methods allow one to prove as well that
certain cubic equations have no solutions!
