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."}],"publication_status":"published","publication":"Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society","extern":"1","type":"journal_article","date_updated":"2023-02-23T14:01:21Z","volume":53,"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0024-6093"],"eissn":["1469-2120"]},"day":"03","year":"2021","publisher":"Wiley","article_type":"original","date_published":"2021-04-03T00:00:00Z","scopus_import":"1","quality_controlled":"1","title":"Acyclic subgraphs of tournaments with high chromatic number","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.07722","open_access":"1"}],"oa_version":"Preprint","issue":"2","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"intvolume":" 53"}
