      This article represents a remarkable contribution to the field of minimal surfaces. The author solves a Jenkins-Serrin problem over a strip domain and further takes the conjugate minimal surface to the Jenkins-Serrin graph. This way, he builds a properly embedded periodic minimal surface (with infinite total curvature in the quotient of its period) -- by adding a handle to the toroidal half-plane layers.
