Abstract
In 1974 the American Mathematical Society organized a symposium to evaluate the state of the solution of Hilbert’s 1900 problems. A new list of problems was drawn up at that symposium to represent the contemporary view about the main trends in mathematics.

Recall that A. Wiles proved the Taniyama conjecture, which implies Fermat’s; however the construction given here can be applied to any intractable number-theoretic problem.
