    The authors consider the finite minimax optimization problem NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\min_{x\in\mathbb{R}^n}\,F(x),\quad\text{where }F(x)= \max_{j\in 1_m}\,f^j(x).NEWLINE\]NEWLINE For this problem, the authors propose a smoothing method based on a maximum entropy function and an inexact Newton-type algorithm for its solution. The algorithm is shown to both globally and superlinearly convergent.NEWLINENEWLINENumerical results are presented.
