This establishes in a strong form a conjecture of Nassar and Yuster and improves on another result of theirs. Our proof combines probabilistic and spectral techniques together with some additional ideas. In particular, we prove a lemma showing that every tournament with many transitive subtournaments has a large subtournament that is almost transitive. This may be of independent interest."}],"year":"2021","day":"03","article_processing_charge":"No","oa":1,"date_published":"2021-04-03T00:00:00Z","_id":"9572","author":[{"first_name":"Jacob","full_name":"Fox, Jacob","last_name":"Fox"},{"full_name":"Kwan, Matthew Alan","last_name":"Kwan","id":"5fca0887-a1db-11eb-95d1-ca9d5e0453b3","orcid":"0000-0002-4003-7567","first_name":"Matthew Alan"},{"first_name":"Benny","full_name":"Sudakov, Benny","last_name":"Sudakov"}],"title":"Acyclic subgraphs of tournaments with high chromatic number","status":"public","extern":"1","intvolume":" 53","month":"04","user_id":"6785fbc1-c503-11eb-8a32-93094b40e1cf","external_id":{"arxiv":["1912.07722"]},"quality_controlled":"1","date_updated":"2023-02-23T14:01:21Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}
