The paper investigates weighted character sums of type \[ \sum_{n \leq N} \tau_k(n) \chi(n+a). \] Here, \(\chi\) is a non-principal Dirichlet character modulo a prime number \(p\), \(\tau_k(n)\) the number of positive integer solutions \(x_1, \ldots , x_k\) of the equation \(x_1 \cdots x_k = n\) and \((a,p)=1\). The author derives upper bounds for small values of \(N\) (in comparison with \(p\)). Also some arithmetic applications of these estimates are given.
