twoSquare

A proof of Fermat's theorem on sum of two squares. It is the proof that uses gaussian integers. This is done in ssreflect. It contains two files :

---

gauss_int.v : the definition of gaussian integers

fermat2.v : the proof of Fermat's theorem

---

The final statement reads:

From mathcomp.contrib.sum_of_two_square Require Import fermat2.

Check sum2stest.

sum2stest :

reflect (forall p, prime p -> odd p -> p %| n -> odd (logn p n) -> p %% 4 = 1) (n is a sum_of_two_square).
