Techniques and principles of minimax theory play a key role in many areas of research, including game theory, optimization, and computational complexity. In general, a minimax problem can be formulated as min max f(x, y) (1) ",EX !lEY where f(x, y) is a function defined on the product of X and Y spaces. There are two basic issues regarding minimax problems: The first issue concerns the establishment of sufficient and necessary conditions for equality minmaxf(x,y) = maxminf(x,y). (2) "'EX !lEY !lEY "'EX The classical minimax theorem of von Neumann is a result of this type. Duality theory in linear and convex quadratic programming interprets minimax theory in a different way. The second issue concerns the establishment of sufficient and necessary conditions for values of the variables x and y that achieve the global minimax function value f(x*, y*) = minmaxf(x, y). (3) "'EX !lEY There are two developments in minimax theory that we would like to mention.

Minimax Theorems
A textbook for an advanced graduate course in partial differential equations. Presents basic minimax theorems starting from a quantitative deformation lemma; and demonstrates their applications to partial differential equations, particularly in problems dealing with a lack of compactness. Includes some previously unpublished results such as a treatment of the generalized Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
