Target entity: Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares
Context triple: [Pierre de Fermat, notableWork, Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares]
  • A. Gauss’s lemma in number theory
    Gauss’s lemma in number theory is a result that relates the Legendre symbol to the number of sign changes in a certain sequence of multiples, providing a practical criterion for determining quadratic residues modulo an odd prime.
  • B. Hardy–Ramanujan asymptotic formula
    The Hardy–Ramanujan asymptotic formula is a landmark result in number theory that gives an approximate expression for the partition function p(n), describing how the number of integer partitions of n grows rapidly with n.
  • C. Disquisitiones Arithmeticae
    Disquisitiones Arithmeticae is a foundational 1801 treatise on number theory that systematically developed the subject and introduced many of its central concepts and methods.
  • D. An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers
    An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers is a classic textbook in number theory, co-authored by G. H. Hardy, that systematically develops fundamental concepts such as divisibility, prime numbers, Diophantine equations, and quadratic forms.
  • E. Über die Anzahl der Primzahlen unter einer gegebenen Grösse
    Über die Anzahl der Primzahlen unter einer gegebenen Grösse is Bernhard Riemann’s seminal 1859 paper that introduced the Riemann zeta function and laid the foundations of analytic number theory, including the famous Riemann Hypothesis.
  • F. None of above. chosen
  • G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
