%N McKay-Thompson series of class 3B for the Monster group with a(0) = -12.

%C Let t(q) = (eta(q)/eta(q^3))^12 = 1/q-12+54q-76q^2-243q^3+.... If j(q) is the j-invariant, with q-series given by A000521, then j(q) = (t+27)(t+243)^3/t^3 j(q^3) = (t+27)(t+3)^3/t. Hence t(q) can be used to parametrize the classical modular curve X0(3). - _Gene Ward Smith_, Aug 04 2006

%C Cubic AGM theta functions: a(q) (see A004016), b(q) (A005928), c(q) (A005882).
