Abstract
A general approach is given to Lagrangian necessary conditions for a minimax problem, The necessary conditions become sufficient for a mini max under extra hypotheses, with either concave/convex or invex functions, and restrictions on the constraints. A minimax is shown to relate to a weak minimum of a vector function. The sensitivity of a minimax value to a perturbation is related to the gradient of a Lagrangian function with respect to the parameter.
