Abstract
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for ergodicity on $\mathbb {Z}_{3}$ and deduce an alternative proof for the ergodicity of 3-adic affine dynamical systems. Moreover, we prove that the ergodicity characterization by means of the van der Put series known for the group of 2-adic integers has no equivalent on $\mathbb {Z}_{3}$.
