Modularity of rational elliptic curves and Fermat's last theorem

This thesis is an exposition on the theory of elliptic curves and modular forms as applied to the Fermat problem of showing the nonexistence of positive nontrivial integer solutions to the equation x^n + y^n = z^n, for n >= 3. It was Gerhard Frey who, in 1985, made the remarkable observation that...
