Abstract

We give a construction of harmonic differentials that uniquely represent cohomology classes of a non-compact Riemann surface of finite topology. We construct these differentials by cutting off all cusps along horocycles and solving a suitable boundary value problem on the truncated surface. We then pass to the limit as the horocycle in each cusp recedes to infinity.
