Abstract
For each half-integer and large enough integer we construct by PDE gluing methods a self-shrinker with ends and genus . resembles the stacking of levels of the plane in that have been connected by catenoidal bridges with bridges connecting each pair of adjacent levels. It observes the symmetry of an -gonal prism (when is a half integer) or an -gonal antiprism (when is an integer). The construction is based on the Linearised Doubling (LD) methodology which was first introduced by Kapouleas in the construction of minimal surface doublings of in .
