corrected formula, made it nicer
Jan 19, 2010 at 5:40 comment added Tyler Lawson Ah, shoot. Yes, 7 is congruent to 1 mod 3. Thanks for the correction.
Jan 5, 2010 at 2:26 comment added Bjorn Poonen By the way, this covering is the same as the tower of modular curves X(7) --> X_1(7) --> X_0(7). In particular, it can be extended to an even larger tower X(7) --> X(1) with Galois group PSL_2(F_7), in which the upper triangular matrices form the order-21 group.
Jan 5, 2010 at 0:32 comment added H. Hasson This is a little nitpicky, but you meant that (y-1)(y-w)^2(y-w^2)^4 goes to w(y-w^2)(y-1)^2(y-w)^4. It doesn't detract from the argument, of course.
