SUMMARY:Amadeus Reinald\, Oriented trees in $O(k \sqrt{k})$-chromatic digraphs\, a subquadratic bound for Burr's conjecture
DESCRIPTION:In 1980\, Burr conjectured that every directed graph with chromatic number $2k-2$ contains any oriented tree of order $k$ as a subdigraph. Burr showed that chromatic number $(k-1)^2$ suffices\, which was improved in 2013 to $\frac{k^2}{2} – \frac{k}{2} + 1$ by Addario-Berry et al. \nIn this talk\, we give the first subquadratic bound for Burr’s conjecture\, by showing that every directed graph with chromatic number $8\sqrt{\frac{2}{15}} k \sqrt{k} + O(k)$ contains any oriented tree of order $k$. Moreover\, we provide improved bounds of $\sqrt{\frac{4}{3}} k \sqrt{k}+O(k)$ for arborescences\, and $(b-1)(k-3)+3$ for paths on $b$ blocks\, with $b\ge 2$.
