3.1.1 Andrew Beal’s conjecture This proof is also applicable for Andrew Beal’s conjecture. |

and the proof results directly from equation (3.3), which has no solution for natural numbers s = bNb + aNa and x other than zero. We can see that according to Beal’s conjecture all exponents for a, b and c can be different but for a and b have common odd divisor. We should clarify now the case when x=(a+b) – c=0 |

, | (3.7) |
thus |
|
. | (3.8) |
The left side of the equation contains only one component:
s to the power of Nc.
The expression on the right side in square brackets can be divisible by
s |
|
. | (3.8a) |
The lack of divisibility of these last two components by s2
eliminates purposefulness of further exponent increase for
s as this being a divisor for N.
The same applies for second possible divisor of N,
which would have to be divisible by s
and then an exponent could be increased. Max exponent for s
as being a divisor of N could be
N−1, but then expression in square brackets would be negative.
It would become negative already at lower values of exponent for s.

. | (3.8b) |
We can conclude then that Nc=2 and N=s.
The equality: s2= NN=(N − a)N+aN,
must be verified and it is only fulfilled for N=3. This explains the single case: |
