Abstract

This paper establishes three minimax theorems for possibly nonconvex functions on Euclidean spaces or on infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. The theorems also guarantee the existence of saddle points. As a by-product, a complete solution to an interesting open problem related to continuously differentiable functions is obtained. The obtained results are analyzed via a concrete example.
