Bases of schurian antisymmetric coherent configurations and isomorphism test for schurian tournaments

Abstract

It is known that for any permutation group $G$ of odd order one can find a subset of the permuted set whose stabilizer in $G$ is trivial, and if $G$ is primitive, then also a base of size at most 3. Both of these results are generalized to the coherent configuration of $G$ (that is in this case a schurian antisymmetric coherent configuration). This enables us to construct a polynomial-time algorithm for recognizing and isomorphism testing of schurian tournaments (i.e. arc colored tournaments the coherent configurations of which are schurian).
