It is known, under simple conditions on \\(\\gamma_ 1\\) and \\(\\gamma_ 2\\), that they bound a least area minimal annulus between \\(P_ 1\\) and \\(P_ 2\\). \\textit{W. H. Meeks III} and \\textit{R. White} [Bull. Am. Math. Soc., New Ser. 24, No. 1, 179-184 (1991; Zbl 0752.53007)] proved that if the curves are convex there are at most two minimal annuli bounded by \\(\\gamma_ 1 \\cup \\gamma_ 2\\). Assuming that \\(\\gamma_ 1\\) and \\(\\gamma_ 2\\) are convex, \\textit{M. Shiffman} [Ann. Math., II. Ser. 63, 77-90 (1956; Zbl 0070.168)] proved that if \\(M\\) is a minimal annulus bounded by \\(\\gamma_ 1 \\cup \\gamma_ 2\\), then for each horizontal plane \\(P\\) between \\(P_ 1\\) and \\(P_ 2\\), the intersection \\(P\\cap M\\) is again a convex Jordan curve, furthermore if \\(\\gamma_ 1\\) and \\(\\gamma_ 2\\) are circles, then \\(P\\cap M\\) is also a circle. In view of the results of Shiffman, the author deals with the natural question of what happens if the two curves are replaced by straight lines \\(D_ 1\\), \\(D_ 2\\). Let \\(\\theta\\) denote the angle between \\(D_ 1\\) and \\(D_ 2\\). If \\(\\theta = 0\\), i.e., \\(D_ 1\\) is parallel to \\(D_ 2\\), Riemann already constructed a minimal embedded annulus \\(S\\) between \\(P_ 1\\) and \\(P_ 2\\) bounded by \\(D_ 1 \\cup D_ 2\\). Furthermore, its intersection with any horizontal plane between \\(P_ 1\\) and \\(P_ 2\\) is a circle. (A detailed description of Riemann's example is given in [\\textit{D. Hoffman, H. Karcher} and \\textit{H. Rosenberg}, A characterization of Riemann examples (preprint)], where it is proved that if \\(\\theta = 0\\), then the only minimal properly embedded annulus bounded by \\(D_ 1 \\cup D_ 2\\) is precisely this example).   The author shows, in the paper under review, that the case \\(\\theta \\neq 0\\) does not occur. He also generalizes the example of Riemann to yield a family of minimal surfaces \\(S_ k\\) with the following properties: 1) \\(S_ 0 = S\\) (Riemann's example). 2) For every integer \\(k \\geq 0\\), \\(S_ k\\) is a minimal immersed annulus between \\(P_ 1\\) and \\(P_ 2\\), bounded by \\(D_ 1\\cup D_ 2\\) such that after reflection about the lines \\(D_ 1,D_ 2,\\dots\\) we get a complete minimal surface in \\(\\mathbb{R}^ 3\\), which is called again \\(S_ k\\). Furthermore, \\(S_ k\\) is invariant under the translation \\(X\\mapsto X + 2\\pi u\\), where \\(u\\) is the vector orthogonal to \\(D_ 1\\) translating \\(D_ 1\\) to \\(D_ 2\\). Also each end of \\(S_ k\\) in \\(\\mathbb{R}^ 3\\) is a flat horizontal end, i.e. an end asymptotic to a horizontal plane, and the projection of every end over any horizontal plane is a \\((4k+1)\\) to 1 map. The author also gives the Weierstrass representation of this family. He uses in the proofs the Weierstrass representation of minimal surfaces and the reflection principle.","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1209296$38A8FF4D-3819-4156-BFF3-CFA1D829BCA8","rank":"normal"}],"P226":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"bc017709646ef16ca12bd1be91bc933686869604","datavalue":{"value":"53A10","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1209296$508155AE-71CC-4452-B263-09036B1FF71F","rank":"normal"}],"P1451":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1451","hash":"89b9cd81a64e48fc9da84c4f680d65a61ebb3b31","datavalue":{"value":"167708","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q1209296$2D5E7CD9-8F6D-48A1-9037-8C8CE81FB3CA","rank":"normal"}],"P1450":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"61a8ff999bc36708afbc6b8a1fc91f1887d54d36","datavalue":{"value":"Riemann's
