We present an O n algorithm for finding a specified oriented path of order at Ε½ 2 . least n in a tournament of order n. Using this algorithm, we present an O n algorithm that finds a specified oriented path from a given vertex if one exists.
We prove that with three exceptions, every tournament of order n contains each oriented path of order n. The exceptions are the antidirected paths in the 3-cycle, in the regular tournament on 5 vertices, and in the Paley tournament on 7 vertices. ## 2000 Academic Press Tournaments are very rich st
