In this paper we review known minimax results with applications in game theory and showthat these results are easy consequences of the first minimax result for a two person zero sumgame with finite strategy sets published by von Neumann in 1928. Among these results are thewell known minimax...

In this paper we introduce several classes of generalized convexfunctions already discussed in the literature and show the relationbetween those function classes. Moreover, for some of those functionclasses a Farkas-type theorem is proved. As such this paper unifiesand extends results existing...

In this paper the well-known minimax theorems of Wald, Ville and Von Neumann are generalized under weaker topological conditions on the payoff function f and/or extended to the larger set of the Borel probability measures instead of the set of mixed strategies.

In this paper which will appear as a chapter in the Handbook ofGeneralized Convexity we discuss the basic ideas ofconvex and quasiconvex analysis in finite dimensional Euclideanspaces. To illustrate the usefulness of this branchof mathematics also applications to optimization theory...

In this paper we discuss necessary and sufficient conditions for different minimax results to hold using only linear programming duality and the finite intersection property of compact sets. It turns out that these necessary and sufficient conditions have a clear interpretation within zero-sum...
