This PhD thesis deals with the stochastic properties of dynamical systems in infinite measure and more precisely of Z-extensions over a chaotic dynamical system. This work is motivated by the study of the Z-periodic Lorentz gas (in finite horizon) and the geodesic flow on a Z-cover of a compact negatively curved surface. This thesis consists of three parts.The first general part presents the background and the main results obtained, introduces the models considered as well as different tools and notions. The second part is devoted to the study of the asymptotic behavior of the number of self-intersections of trajectories.The main result of this part is a limit theorem established in the general framework of Z-extensions verifying natural hy...
