We show that a random walk on a tournament on n vertices finds either a sink or a 3-cycle in expected time O (√n ∙ log n ∙ √log*n), that is, sublinear both in the size of the description of the graph as well as in the number of vertices. This result... Read More about Sublinear-Time Algorithms for Tournament Graphs.
