Abstract

This paper considers Pontryagin’s generalized nonstationary example [1, p. 478] with several participants under equal dynamic and inertia capabilities of the players. Multiple capture occurs when a given number of pursuers catch one evader. We obtain sufficient conditions for the multiple capture of the evader by a group of pursuers.
