Abstract
Theorem 1 of [14], a minimax result for functions $f:X imes Y o {f R}$, where $Y$ is a real interval, was partially extended to the case where $Y$ is a convex set in a Hausdorff topological vector space ([15], Theorem 3.2). In doing that, a key tool was a partial extension of the same result to the case where $Y$ is a a convex set in ${f R}^n$ ([7], Theorem 4.2). In the present paper, we first obtain a full extension of the result in [14] by means of a new proof fully based on the use of the result itself via an inductive argument. Then, we present an overview of the various and numerous applications of these results.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
