Let $T=(V,A)$ be a tournament. For $X\subseteq V$, the subtournament of $T$ induced by $X$ is denoted by $T[X]$. A subset $I$ of $V$ is an interval of $T$ provided that for every $a,b\in I$ and $x\in V\setminus I$, $(a,x)\in A$ if and only…

We consider a tournament $T=(V, A)$. For $X\subseteq V$, the subtournament of $T$ induced by $X$ is $T[X] = (X, A \cap (X \times X))$. An interval of $T$ is a subset $X$ of $V$ such that for $a, b\in X$ and $ x\in V\setminus X$, $(a,x)\in…

Given a tournament T=(V,A), a subset X of $V$ is an interval of T provided that for every a, b in X and x\in V-X, (a,x) in A if and only if (b,x) in A. For example, $\emptyset$, {x}(x in V) and V are intervals of T, called trivial…

Given a tournament $T$, a module of $T$ is a subset $M$ of $V(T)$ such that for $x, y\in M$ and $v\in V(T)\setminus M$, $(x,v)\in A(T)$ if and only if $(y,v)\in A(T)$. The trivial modules of $T$ are $\emptyset$, $\{u\}$ $(u\in V(T))$ and…

Given a tournament $T$, a module of $T$ is a subset $M$ of $V(T)$ such that for $x, y\in M$ and $v\in V(T)\setminus M$, $(v,x)\in A(T)$ if and only if $(v,y)\in A(T)$. The trivial modules of $T$ are $\emptyset$, $\{u\}$ $(u\in V(T))$ and…

Given a tournament T=(V,A), a subset X of V is an interval of T provided that for any a, b\in X and x\in V-X, (a,x) \in A if and only if (b,x)\in A. For example, \emptyset, \{x\} (x\in V) and V are intervals of T, called trivial intervals.…

Given a tournament $T$, a module of $T$ is a subset $X$ of $V(T)$ such that for $x, y\in X$ and $v\in V(T)\setminus X$, $(x,v)\in A(T)$ if and only if $(y,v)\in A(T)$. The trivial modules of $T$ are $\emptyset$, $\{u\}$ $(u\in V(T))$ and…

We only consider finite structures. With every totally ordered set $V$ and a subset $P$ of $\binom{V}{2}$, we associate the underlying tournament ${\rm Inv}(\underline{V}, P)$ obtained from the transitive tournament $\underline{V}:=(V,…

A tournament is \emph{acyclically indecomposable} if no acyclic autonomous set of vertices has more than one element. We identify twelve infinite acyclically indecomposable tournaments and prove that every infinite acyclically…

We consider the transformation reversing all arcs of a subset $X$ of the vertex set of a tournament $T$. The \emph{index} of $T$, denoted by $i(T)$, is the smallest number of subsets that must be reversed to make $T$ acyclic. It turns out…

An $n$-tournament $T$ with vertex set $V$ is simple if there is no subset $M$ of $V$ such that $2\leq \left \vert M\right \vert \leq n-1$ and for every $x\in V\setminus M$, either $M\rightarrow x$ or $x \rightarrow M$. The simplicity index…

A tournament $T$ is a tournament completion of a bipartite tournament $D$ if $D$ is a spanning subdigraph of $T$, i.e., $V(D)=V(T)$ and $A(D)\subseteq A(T)$. If $C$ is a $k$-dicycle (i.e., directed cycle of length $k$) in a tournament…

We prove the following new results. (a) Let $T$ be a regular tournament of order $2n+1\geq 11$ and $S$ a subset of $V(T)$. Suppose that $|S|\leq \frac{1}{2}(n-2)$ and $x$, $y$ are distinct vertices in $V(T)\setminus S$. If the subtournament…

We study some problems pertaining to the tournament equilibrium set (TEQ for short). A tournament $H$ is a TEQ-retentive tournament if there is a tournament $T$ which has a minimal TEQ-retentive set $R$ such that $T[R]$ is isomorphic to…

The converse of a tournament is obtained by reversing all arcs. If a tournament is isomorphic to its converse, it is called self--converse. Eplett provided a necessary and sufficient condition for a sequence of integers to be realisable as…

A 3-tournament is a complete 3-uniform hypergraph where each edge has a special vertex designated as its tail. A vertex set $X$ dominates $T$ if every vertex not in $X$ is contained in an edge whose tail is in $X$. The domination number of…

Let $U_5$ be the tournament with vertices $v_1$, ..., $v_5$ such that $v_2 \rightarrow v_1$, and $v_i \rightarrow v_j$ if $j-i \equiv 1$, $2 \pmod{5}$ and ${i,j} \neq {1,2}$. In this paper we describe the tournaments which do not have $U_5$…

A tournament is unimodular if the determinant of its skew-adjacency matrix is $1$. In this paper, we give some properties and constructions of unimodular tournaments. A unimodular tournament $T$ with skew-adjacency matrix $S$ is invertible…

We study the complexity of counting and finding small tournament patterns inside large tournaments. Given a fixed tournament $T$ of order $k$, we write ${\#}\text{IndSub}_{\text{To}}(\{T\})$ for the problem whose input is a tournament $G$…

Let $T$ be a tournament with $n$ vertices $v_1,\ldots,v_n$. The skew-adjacency matrix of $T$ is the $n\times n$ zero-diagonal matrix $S_T = [s_{ij}]$ in which $s_{ij}=-s_{ji}=1$ if $ v_i $ dominates $ v_j $. We define the determinant…
