Schur's Theorem states for any positive integer r, there exists S(r) where r-coloring integers from 1 to S(r) contains monochromatic solution to x+y=z
Relates to study of sums of integers and provides insights into structure of integer partitions
Precursor to dealing with monochromatic structures in colorings of integers
Demonstrates existence of unavoidable patterns in large sets of integers (arithmetic progressions)
Schur numbers and Fermat equation
S(r) largest integer n where {1, 2, ..., n} can be r-colored without monochromatic solution to x+y=z
states xn+yn=zn has no non-trivial integer solutions for n > 2
Both involve with three variables and study of solutions
Schur's Theorem focuses on colorings and patterns while Fermat's on non-existence of solutions
