We give a geometric interpretation (and we deduce an explicit formula) for two types of exponential sums, one of which is the third moment of Kloosterman sums over of type . We establish a connection between the sums considered and the number of -rational points on explicit smooth projective surfaces, one of which is a surface, whereas the other is a smooth cubic surface. As a consequence, we obtain, applying Grothendieck-Lefschetz theory, a generalized formula for the third moment of Kloosterman sums first investigated by D. H. and E. Lehmer in the ’s .
Nous donnons une interprétation géométrique à deux types distincts de sommes d’exponentielles. L’une d’elles correspond au moment d’ordre trois des sommes de Kloosterman sur de type . Nous commençons par établir un lien entre les sommes considérées et le nombre de points -rationnels sur certaines surfaces projectives lisses : l’une d’entre elles est une surface et l’autre est une surface cubique lisse. Appliquant la théorie de Grothendieck-Lefschetz, on retrouve alors en particulier une formule pour le troisième moment des sommes de Kloosterman obtenue par D. H. et E. Lehmer en .
