Neuen-Grohe Problem: Isomorphism of Tournaments with Bounded VC Dimension

Among classes of tournaments for which neither hardness nor polynomial-time solvability of isomorphism was known, bounded VC dimension stood out as an open problem of Neuen and Grohe. Resolved: isomorphism of tournaments of VC dimension $d$ is decidable in time $n^{O(d \log d)}$, so automorphism groups of bounded-VC tournaments are computable in polynomial time; isomorphism of tournaments of bounded chromatic number is also polynomial-time decidable.
