Summary:
For any positive integer $k\geq 3$, it is easy to prove that the \mbox {$k$-polygonal} numbers are $a_n(k)= (2n+n(n-1)(k-2))/2$. The main purpose of this paper is, using the properties of Gauss sums and Dedekind sums, the mean square value theorem of Dirichlet \mbox {$L$-functions} and the analytic methods, to study the computational problem of one kind mean value of Dedekind sums $S(a_n(k)\overline {a}_m(k), p)$ for \mbox {$k$-polygonal} numbers with $1\leq m,n\leq p-1$, and give an interesting computational formula for it.
