Abstract

Nous construisons des exemples de surfaces à courbure négative de volume infini, sur lesquelles tous les horocycles sont récurrents. Ces exemples reposent sur le résultat suivant: si le rayon d’injectivité le long d’une géodésique n’est pas minoré, alors l’horocycle associé est récurrent.
