[Frontière de Poisson des matrices triangulaires à coefficients dans un corps de nombre]
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Tome 59 (2009) no. 2, pp. 575-593.

L’objet de cette note est de décrire la frontière de Poisson du groupe des matrices triangulaires supérieures inversibles à coefficients dans un corps de nombre. C’est une généralisation en dimension supérieure d’un résultat de Brofferio concernant la frontière de Poisson du groupe des applications affines rationnelles.

The aim of this note is to describe the Poisson boundary of the group of invertible triangular matrices with coefficients in a number field. It generalizes to any dimension and to any number field a result of Brofferio concerning the Poisson boundary of random rational affinities.
