Abstract
Differential search games with simple motions of objects on an infinite circular cylinder are approached geometrically, using sets whose structure depends on time. Sufficient conditions for detection with the corresponding strategies are given. New kinds of problems are proposed, their connections with the initial parameters are investigated.
