In mathematics, the Feit–Thompson conjecture is a conjecture in number theory, suggested by Walter Feit and John G. Thompson (1962). The conjecture states that there are no distinct prime numbers p and q such that p q − 1 p − 1 {\displaystyle {\frac {p^{q}-1}{p-1}}} divides q p − 1 q − 1 {\displaystyle {\frac {q^{p}-1}{q-1}}} .
