Let \(N\),\(Q\), \(r\), \(s\) be positive integers and \(f(x_{1}, \ldots ,x_{r})\) an integer valued polynomial of degree \(n > s\) whose coefficients are relatively prime to \(Q\). The author considers incomplete exponential sums of the form \[ S(f,P)= \sum_{\substack{ x_{1}, \ldots ,x_{r}=1\\ x_{1}^{s}+ \cdots +x_{r}^{s}=N }}^{P} \exp (2 \pi i f(x_{1}, \ldots ,x_{r})/Q), \] where \(P=[N^{1/s}]\), \(N \geq \max \{Q^{4r},Q^{2^{s}+3} \}\) and \(r \geq 8s^{2} \log s\). Making use of a result of the reviewer [\textit{S. A. Stepanov}, Math. Notes 39, 89-97 (1986); translation from Mat. Zametki 39, 161-175 (1986; Zbl 0599.10029)] on the estimation of complete rational sums \[ S(f,Q)= \sum_{\substack{ x_{1}, \ldots ,x_{r}=1\\ g(x_{1}, \ldots ,g_{r}) \equiv 0 \pmod q}} \exp(2 \pi i f(x_{1}, \ldots ,x_{r})/Q) \] the author finds a nontrivial upper bound for the absolute value of \(S(f,P)\) (under some congruence conditions on \(f(x_{1}, \ldots ,x_{r})\) with respect to all prime divisors of \(Q\)) and then applies the result to the problem on distribution of fractional parts of polynomials with rational coefficients.
