  text: We consider the problem of computing the set of initial states of a dynamical
    system such that there exists a control strategy to ensure that the trajectories
    satisfy a temporal logic specification with probability 1 (almost-surely). We
    focus on discrete-time, stochastic linear dynamics and specifications given as
    formulas of the Generalized Reactivity(1) fragment of Linear Temporal Logic over
    linear predicates in the states of the system. We propose a solution based on
    iterative abstraction-refinement, and turn-based 2-player probabilistic games.
    While the theoretical guarantee of our algorithm after any finite number of iterations
    is only a partial solution, we show that if our algorithm terminates, then the
    result is the set of satisfying initial states. Moreover, for any (partial) solution
    our algorithm synthesizes witness control strategies to ensure almost-sure satisfaction
    of the temporal logic specification. We demonstrate our approach on an illustrative
    case study.
