On the mean values of Dedekind sums
Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux, Volume 8 (1996) no. 2, pp. 429-442.

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the mean value of Dedekind sums, and give a sharper asymptotic formula.

On étudie dans ce papier le comportement asymptotique de valeurs moyennes de sommes de Dedekind. On donne en particulier une formule asymptotique améliorant un résultat antérieur.
