In this paper, we introduce a class of set-valued mappings with some set order relations, which is called uniformly same-order. For this sort of mappings, we obtain some existence results of saddle points and depict the structures of the sets of saddle points. Moreover, we obtain a minimax theorem and establish an equivalent relationship between the minimax theorem and a saddle point theorem for the scalar set-valued mappings, in which the minimization and the maximization of set-valued mappings are taken in the sense of set optimization.
Keywords: set optimization, vector optimization, saddle point, Minimax theorem, set-valued mapping..
