In synthesis, assumptions are constraints on the environment that rule out certain environment behaviors. A key observation here is that even if we consider systems with LTLf goals on finite traces, environment assumptions need to be…

We consider the problem of automatically synthesizing a hybrid controller for non-linear dynamical systems which ensures that the closed-loop fulfills an arbitrary \emph{Linear Temporal Logic} specification. Moreover, the specification may…

In this paper, we study incremental LTLf synthesis -- a form of reactive synthesis where the goals are given incrementally while in execution. In other words, the protagonist agent is already executing a strategy for a certain goal when it…

Generalized Reactivity(1) (GR(1)) synthesis is a reactive synthesis approach in which the specification is split into two parts: a symbolic game graph, describing the safe transitions of a system, a liveness specification in a subset of…
