Abstract: Let k be a finite field of characteristic p, l a prime number distinct to p, a nontrivial additive character, and a character on kastn. Then psi defines an Artin-Schreier sheaf calLpsi on the affine line , and chi defines a Kummer sheaf calKchi on the n-dimensional torus . Let fink[X1,X11,...,Xn,Xn1] be a Laurent polynomial. It defines a k-morphism . In this paper, we calculate the dimensions and weights of under some non-degeneracy conditions on f. Our results can be used to estimate sums of the form sum_{x_1,..., x_nin k^ast} chi_1(f_1(x_1,..., x_n))... chi_m(f_m(x_1,..., x_n))psi(f(x_1,..., x_n)), where are multiplicative characters, is a nontrivial additive character, and f1,...,fm,f are Laurent polynomials.
