Let K be the field of formal Laurent series in X–1 over the finite field k, and let A be the ring of polynomials in X over k. One of the main results of the paper is to give a natural coding of the (discrete) geodesic flow on the quotient of the Bruhat–Tits treeT of PGL2(K) by PGL2(A), using the continued fraction expansion of the endpoints of the geodesic lines in T (the space of ends of T identifies with P 1(K). In particular, the invariance of the Haar measure by the Artin transformation can be deduced from the invariance of the Bowen–Margulis measure by the geodesic flow.
