title = "Erd{\H o}s–Hajnal for graphs with no 5-hole",
abstract = "The Erd{\H o}s–Hajnal conjecture says that for every graph (Formula presented.) there exists (Formula presented.) such that every graph (Formula presented.) not containing (Formula presented.) as an induced subgraph has a clique or stable set of cardinality at least (Formula presented.). We prove that this is true when (Formula presented.) is a cycle of length five. We also prove several further results: for instance, that if (Formula presented.) is a cycle and (Formula presented.) is the complement of a forest, there exists (Formula presented.) such that every graph (Formula presented.) containing neither of (Formula presented.) as an induced subgraph has a clique or stable set of cardinality at least (Formula presented.).",
