I strongly suspect that

\alpha^{(P-1)/3} \equiv \left(\frac{\alpha}{\pi}\right)_3

should be replaced by

\alpha^{(P-1)/3} \equiv \left(\frac{\alpha}{\pi}\right)_3 \mod \pi

which would be somewhat analogous to Euler's criterion for the Legendre symbol. DRLB 18:45, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes indeed, fixed now: thanks. Richard Pinch 06:26, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
