The paper under review deals with the volume entropy of hyperbolic or Euclidean regular buildings. The volume entropy is defined as the exponential growth rate of the volume of balls. The first theorem characterizes the volume entropy in terms of the topological pressure of the geodesic flow on an apartment, by taking the supremum of this pressure among measures invariant by the geodesic flow. In the hyperbolic case, this supremum is realized by the Bowen-Margulis measure of the space of geodesics of the building, and here it is shown that it does not project to a Liouville measure on the unit tangent bundle of the apartments. This is used to obtain strict lower bounds of the volume entropy in terms of the branching numbers and the volume of the Coxeter polyhedron and its boundary.
