Abstract
Convexity spaces defined in the paper are generated by families of continuo us functions. Without imposing any explicitly stated linear structure on th e spaces, Browder's, Brouwer's and Kakutani's fixed point theorems are prov ed and used for deriving generalized Fan inequalities and two-function mini max theorems. The existence of Nash equilibria in noncooperative games is a lso established under more general conditions than known before. The convex ity spaces studied in the paper allow for unusual (generalized) convex sets and functions.
