A very complicated proof of the minimax theorem
Minimax theory and its applications, Tome 1 (2016) no. 1
The justly celebrated von Neumann minimax theorem has many proofs. Here I reproduce the most complex one I am aware of. This provides a fine didactic example for many courses in convex analysis or functional analysis.
