Abstract

A pursuit problem in which players have identical maximal velocity and the evader moves over a strictly convex smooth n-dimensional hypersurface is investigated. It is shown that pursuit can be completed from any initial position. If the hypersurface contains a planar part, then pursuit can be evaded from certain initial positions.
