is the cyclic group that is the unique group of group order 7. Examples include the point group and the integers modulo 7 under addition (). No modulo multiplication group is isomorphic to . Like all cyclic groups, is Abelian.
The cycle graph is shown above, and the group has cycle index is
The elements of the group satisfy , where 1 is the identity element.
Its multiplication table is illustrated above and enumerated below.

Because it is Abelian, the group conjugacy classes are , , , , , , and . Because 7 is prime, the only subgroups are the trivial group and the entire group. is therefore a simple group, as are all cyclic graphs of prime order.
