#### Abstract

In this work, we obtain intersection theorem, analytic alternative and von Neumann type minimax theorem in G-convex spaces. We also generalize Ky Fan minimax inequality to acyclic versions in G-convex spaces. The result is applied to formulate acyclic versions of other minimax results, a theorem of systems of inequalities and analytic alternative.
