Abstract

We present a topological minimax theorem (Theorem 2.2). The topological assumptions on the spaces involved are somewhat weaker than those usually found in the literature. Even when reinterpreted in the convex setting of topological vector spaces, our theorem yields nonnegligible improvements, for example, of the Passy–Prisman theorem and consequently of the Sion theorem, contrary to most results on topological minimax. This work is part of our ongoing effort to elaborate a coherent theory of minimax.
