    The authors study \(n\)-dimensional Weingarten hypersurfaces in the \((n+1)\)-dimensional hyperbolic space. Recall that a hypersurface is called a Weingarten hypersurface if there exists a functional relation between its principal curvatures. This means that there exists a function \(f\) such that \(f(\kappa_1,\dots,\kappa_n)\) is constant on \(M\), where \(\kappa_i\) denote the hyperbolic principal curvature functions. The authors also assume that the hypersurface has a prescribed asymptotic boundary at infinity. For a large class of functions \(f\), the authors show that there exists a complete locally strictly convex hypersurface with uniformly bounded principal curvatures. This hypersurface is obtained as the graph of the solution of a suitable Dirichlet problem.
