Let S be a topologically finite surface, and g be a hyperbolic metric on S with a finite number of conical singularities of positive singular curvature, cusps and complete ends of infinite area. We prove that there exists a convex polyhedral surface P in hyperbolic space ℍ³ and a group G of isometries of ℍ³ such that the induced metric on the quotient P/G is isometric to g. Moreover,...
