Given an integer k greater than 1, let S(k) be the space of
complete embedded singly periodic minimal surfaces in R^3,
which in the quotient have genus zero and 2k Scherk-type ends.
It is well known that S(2) consists of the 1-parameter family of
singly periodic Scherk minimal surfaces.
We prove that for each k greater than 2, there exists a natural
one-to-one correspondence between S(k) and the space of convex
unitary nonspecial polygons through the map which assigns to each
M in S(k) the polygon whose edges are the flux vectors at the
ends of M. (Here a special polygon is a parallelogram with two sides
of length 1 and two sides of length k-1).
As consequence, S(k) reduces to the Saddle Towers constructed by
Karcher.
