Abstract (English):	We give a new proof of a result due to Y. Shalom: if the fundamental group of a compact real hyperbolic manifold of dimn is a free product of its subgroups A and B over the amalgamated subgroup C, then the critical exponent of C is not smaller than n−2. The proof, which is geometric, allows one to treat the equality case and an extension to variable curvature. To cite this article: G. Besson et al., C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser. I 336 (2003).

Abstract (French):	Nous donnons une preuve nouvelle d'un re´sultat duˆ a` Y. Shalom ; pre´cise´ment, nous montrons que, si le groupe fondamental d'une varie´te´ hyperbolique re´elle compacte de dimension n est le produit libre de ses sous-groupes A et B amalgame´ sur C, alors l'exposant critique de C est plus grand que n−2. La preuve, ge´ome´trique, permet de traiter le cas d'e´galite´ ainsi qu'une extension au cas de courbure variable. Pour citer cet article : G. Besson et al., C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser.
