S-unit equations and the asymptotic Fermat conjecture over number fields

Recent attempts to study the Fermat equation over number fields have uncovered an unexpected and powerful connection with S-unit equations. In this expository paper we explain this connection and its implications for the asymptotic Fermat conjecture.
