Abstract
We study the lion-and-man game in which a lion (the pursuer) tries to capture a man (the evader). The players have equal speed and they can observe each other at all times. In this paper, we study the game on surfaces of convex terrains. We show that the lion can capture the man in finite number of steps determined by the terrain geometry.
