The prize for proving the Beal Conjecture has been increased to $1,000,000.

It started in 1997 as $5000.

It says if Ax + By = Cz , where A, B, C, x, y and z are positive integers and x, y and z are all greater than 2, then A, B and C must have a common prime factor:

It's a generalisation of Fermat's Last Theorem which would follow immediately as a corollary.
