 Solution

LetIts complex partial derivatives areThere is no point of $X^{\prime }$ at which both vanish. Indeed, if $F=F_x=F_y=0$, then $F_y=0$ and $F=0$ giveNeither $x$ nor $y$ can be zero because $F_x=0$. Substitution into $F_x=0$ gives $12y^7+1=0$, whereas substitution into $F_y=0$ gives $8y^7+3=0$; these equations are incompatible.

For every $p=(x_0,y_0)\in X^{\prime }$, at least one partial derivative is nonzero. If $F_y(p)\ne 0$, the holomorphic implicit function theorem expresses the curve near $p$ as $y=g(x)$, and the restriction of the $x$-projection is a holomorphic coordinate chart. If $F_x(p)\ne 0$, use the $y$-projection instead. On overlaps, the transition functions are restrictions of holomorphic coordinate functions and are holomorphic. These charts define an atlas making $X^{\prime }$ a one-dimensional complex manifold, hence a Riemann surface.
