Abstract

Using a connected sum construction, we prove the existence of complete non-compact embedded constant-mean-curvature-1 surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space with finitely many ends and non-trivial topology. These surfaces are obtained by desingularizing finitely many mutually tangent horospheres.
