Stampacchia" International School of Mathematics of the "E. Majorana" Centre for Scientific Cul ture in Erice (Italy) . The main theme of the workshop was minimax theory in its most classical meaning. That is to say, given a real-valued function f on a product space X x Y , one tries to find conditions that ensure the validity of the equality sup inf f(x,y) = inf sup f(x, y). yEY xEX xEX yEY This is not an appropriate place to enter into the technical details of the proofs of minimax theorems, or into the history of the contribu tions to the solution of this basic problem in the last 7 decades. But we do want to stress its intrinsic interest and point out that, in spite of its extremely simple formulation, it conceals a great wealth of ideas. This is clearly shown by the large variety of methods and tools that have been used to study it. The applications of minimax theory are also extremely interesting. In fact, the need for the ability to "switch quantifiers" arises in a seemingly boundless range of different situ | 出版日期 | Book 1998 | 关键词 | Operator theory; Sim; algorithms; calculus; functional analysis; game theory; optimization | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-015-9113-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-90-481-5030-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-015-9113-3Series ISSN 1571-568X | issn_series | 1571-568X | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 1998 |
