Minimax problems, such as generative adversarial network, adversarial training, and fair training, are widely solved by a multi-step gradient descent ascent (MGDA) method in practice. However, its convergence guarantee is limited. In this paper, inspired by the primal-dual hybrid gradient method, we propose a new semi-anchoring (SA) technique for the MGDA method. This makes the MGDA method find a stationary point of a structured nonconvex-nonconcave composite minimax problem; its saddle-subdifferential operator satisfies the weak Minty variational inequality condition. The resulting method, named SA-MGDA, is built upon a Bregman proximal point method. We further develop its backtracking line-search version, and its non-Euclidean version for smooth adaptable functions. Numerical experiments, including a fair classification training, are provided.
