Lion and Man: The Boundary Constraint.
Abstract
The author considers a generalization of Rado's pursuit problem. A pursuer, moving in a circular arena with speed bounded by 1, tries to get as close as possible to an evader, moving along the circumference with speed bounded by w > or = 1. Using the approach of Ryll-Nardzewski and Varaiya and Lin, the author formulates this problem as a differential game. Then the author determines the value and construct optimal strategies for both players. The results are compared with Isaacs' on pursuit in the half-plane. (Author)
