Abstract: We obtain an estimate for the cubic Weyl sum which improves the bound obtained from Weyl differencing for short ranges of summation. In particular, we show that for any $varepsilon>0$ there exists some $delta>0$ such that for any coprime integers $a,q$ and real number $gamma$ we have �egin{align*} sum_{1le n le N}eleft(frac{an^3}{q}+gamma n ight)ll (qN)^{1/4} q^{-delta}, end{align*} provided $q^{1/3+varepsilon}leNle{q}^{1/2-varepsilon}$. Our argument builds on some ideas of Enflo.
