The Klein-V\'elu septic, 2-Division, and modular function fields of level 14
Abstract
We study the 2-division of the Klein-V\'elu elliptic normal septic. Its three non-zero 2-torsion points give rise to an explicit cubic equation over the function field of $X(7)$. We identify the three roots of this cubic with modular functions expressed in terms of septic theta functions at $\tau/2,\tau$, and $2\tau$, and show that its splitting field is precisely the function field of $X(14)$. This gives an explicit link between the 2-division geometry of the Klein-V\'elu septic and the passage from full level 7 to full level $14$. Several intermediate modular function fields in the resulting $S_3$-extension are also described.
