Fermat's Theorem-tip of the iceberg?

For a glimpse of what lies beneath the tip you may visit

and read the third conjecture.Tks to those taking the trouble.

You can rewrite as

For odd b, the right hand side is obviously ≡ 0 (mod m) as the lone c cancel. For even b, the term will be ≡ 2c (mod m).

Thank you for your kind comments.My point,however, was to emhasise
the layered structure and to point out that Fermat's theorem is only the tip.In other words, we shd not be surprissed if


a^(b^d^n + k*phi(phi(phi(m)))) + c is also congruent to 0 (mod m)

subject to a^(b^d^n) + c being = m.
