Abstract
We study the Fermat equation over quadratic fields \mathbb Q (\sqrt {d}) for squarefree d with 26 \leq d \leq 97. By studying quadratic points on the modular curves X_0(N), d-regular primes, and working with Hecke operators on spaces of Hilbert newforms, we extend work of Freitas and Siksek to show that for most squarefree d in this range there are no non-trivial solutions to this equation for n \geq 4.
