Reactive synthesis is the process of using temporal logic specifications in LTL to generate correct controllers, but its use has been restricted to Boolean specifications. Recently, a Boolean abstraction technique allows to translate LTL T…

We consider an agent acting to fulfil tasks in a nondeterministic environment. When a strategy that fulfills the task regardless of how the environment acts does not exist, the agent should at least avoid adopting strategies that prevent…
