The Kummer-Vandiver conjecture is a 150 year old open problem in number theory that was born out of attempts to prove Fermat's Last Theorem. If true, it has profound consequences in algebraic number theory as well as in algebraic topology. It is however far from universally believed. In this introductory talk, which is aimed at a general mathematical audience, I will explain the history and statement of the conjecture, and sketch some arguments both for and against the conjecture.
