The term "misnamed theorems" refers to mathematical theorems that have names which may be misleading, incorrect, or attributed to the wrong person. Here are some notable examples: 1. **Fermat's Last Theorem**: While this theorem is indeed named after Pierre de Fermat, he never provided a complete proof. The famous statement of the theorem was only proven by Andrew Wiles in the 1990s, long after Fermat's time.
