Let \(M=X/\Gamma\) be a geometrically finite negatively curved manifold with fundamental group \(\Gamma\) acting on X by isometries. The purpose of this book is to study the mixing property of the geodesic flow on \(\mathrm{T}^{1}\mathrm{M}\), the asymptotic behavior as \(R\rightarrow+\infty\) of the number of closed geodesics on M of length less than \(R\) and of the orbital counting function \(\sharp\{\gamma\in\Gamma\vert d(\mathbf{o},\gamma\cdot \mathbf{o})\le R\}\).
These properties are well known when the Bowen-Margulis measure on \(\mathrm{T}^{1}\mathrm{M}\) is finite. The author considers here Schottky group \(\Gamma=\Gamma_{1}\ast\Gamma_{2}\ast\cdots\ast\Gamma_{k}\) whose Bowen-Margulis measure is infinite and ergodic, such that one of the elementary factor \(\Gamma_{i}\) is parabolic with \(\delta_{\Gamma_{i}}=\delta_{\Gamma}\).
The author specifies these ergodic properties using a symbolic coding induced by the Schottky group structure.
