Abstract

In this paper we study the L1 mean

formula here

of the exponential sum M(α)= [sum ]n[les ]Xμ(n)e(nα), where μ(n) is the Möbius function and e(x)=e2πix. From the Cauchy–Schwarz inequality and Parseval's identity, we have

formula here

and it is an interesting problem to investigate whether (2) reflects the true order of magnitude of (1).
