Moser asked for a construction of explicit tournaments on $n$ vertices having at least $(\frac{n}{3e})^n$ Hamilton cycles. We show that he could have asked for rather more.

A tournament is an orientation of a graph. Vertices are players and edges are games, directed away from the winner. Kannan, Tetali and Vempala and McShine showed that tournaments with given score sequence can be rapidly sampled, via simple…

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 $k$-spectrally monomorphic if all the $k\times k$ principal submatrices of its adjacency matrix have the same characteristic polynomial. Transitive $n$-tournaments are trivially $k$-spectrally monomorphic. We show that there…

A tournament is called locally transitive if the outneighbourhood and the inneighbourhood of every vertex are transitive. Equivalently, a tournament is locally transitive if it avoids the tournaments $W_4$ and $L_4$, which are the only…

We consider a problem proposed by Linial and Wilf to determine the structure of graphs that allows the maximum number of $q$-colorings among graphs with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. Let $T_r(n)$ denote the Tur\'{a}n graph - the complete…

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…

We study biased {\em orientation games}, in which the board is the complete graph $K_n$, and Maker and Breaker take turns in directing previously undirected edges of $K_n$. At the end of the game, the obtained graph is a tournament. Maker…

Generalized Tur\'an problems investigate the maximization of the number of certain structures (typically edges) under some constraints in a graph. We study a game version of these problems, the Constructor-Blocker game. We mainly focus on…

For a regular tournament $T$ of order $n,$ denote by $c_{8}(T)$ the number of cycles of length $8$ in $T.$ Let $DR_{n}$ be a doubly-regular tournament of order $n\equiv 3\mod4$ (so, the out-sets and in-sets of its vertices are also regular…

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 vertex $x$ in a tournament $T$ is called a king if for every vertex $y$ of $T$ there is a directed path from $x$ to $y$ of length at most 2. It is not hard to show that every vertex of maximum out-degree in a tournament is a king.…

Ranking the participants of a tournament has applications in voting, paired comparisons analysis, sports and other domains. In this paper we introduce bipartite tournaments, which model situations in which two different kinds of entity…

We study rotation $r$-graphs and show that for every $r$-graph $G$ of odd regularity there is a simple rotation $r$-graph $G'$ such that $G$ can be obtained form $G'$ by a finite number of $2$-cut reductions. As a consequence, some hard…

For an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ and a family of $r$-uniform hypergraphs $\mathcal{F}$, the relative Tur\'{a}n number $\mathrm{ex}(H,\mathcal{F})$ is the maximum number of edges in an $\mathcal{F}$-free subgraph of $H$. In this paper we…

The paper presents a hierarchical Bayesian model for simultaneous inference of tournament graphs and informant error. From multiple informant reports or measurement instrument outputs, the model estimates the structure of a criterion (i.e.,…

Tur\'an number is one of primary topics in the combinatorics of finite sets,in this paper, we will present a new upper bound for Tur\'an number.

We consider the problem of estimating the probability matrix governing a tournament or linkage in graphs from incomplete observations, under the assumption that the probability matrix satisfies natural monotonicity constraints after being…

Let $\alpha(\mathbb{F}_q^d,p)$ denote the maximum size of a general position set in a $p$-random subset of $\mathbb{F}_q^d$. We determine the order of magnitude of $\alpha(\mathbb{F}_q^2,p)$ up to polylogarithmic factors for all possible…

It is proved that with finitely many possible exceptions, each cyclotomic scheme over finite field is determined up to isomorphism by the tensor of 2-dimensional intersection numbers; for infinitely many schemes, this result cannot be…
