On hybrid mean value of Dedekind sums and two-term exponential sums

Abstract

In this paper, we use the elementary and analytic methods to study the computational problem of one kind mean value involving the classical Dedekind sums and two-term exponential sums, and give two exact computational formulae for them.

Keywords

Dedekind sums / two-term exponential sums / mean value / computational formula
