The Weyl problem for unbounded convex domains in $\HH^3$
Abstract
Let be a convex subset in with smooth, strictly convex boundary. The induced metric on then has curvature . It was proved by Alexandrov that if is bounded, then it is uniquely determined by the induced metric on the boundary, and any smooth metric with curvature can be obtained. We propose here an extension of the existence part of this result to unbounded convex domains in . The induced metric on is then clearly not sufficient to determine . However one can consider a richer data on the boundary including the ideal boundary of . Specifically, we consider the data composed of the full conformal structure on the boundary of (in the Poincar\'e model of ), together with the induced metric on . We show that a wide range of "reasonable" data of this type, satisfying mild curvature conditions, can be realized on the boundary of a convex subset in .
