Abstract
Consider a 3dimensional manifold obtained by gluing a finite number of ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra via isometries along their faces. By varying the isometry type of each tetrahedron but keeping fixed the gluing pattern we define a space of complete hyperbolic metrics on with cone singularities along the edges of the tetrahedra. We prove that is homeomorphic to a Euclidean space and we compute its dimension. By means of examples, we examine if the elements of are uniquely determined by the angles around the edges of
