The Erdős–Hajnal conjecture says that for every graph H$H$ there exists τ>0$\tau >0$ such that every graph G$G$ not containing H$H$ as an induced subgraph has a clique or stable set of cardinality at least |G|τ$|G|^\tau$. We prove that this is true when H$H$ is a cycle of length five. We also prove several further results: for instance, that if C$C$ is a cycle and H$H$ is the complement of a forest, there exists τ>0$\tau >0$ such that every graph G$G$ containing neither of C,H$C,H$ as an induced subgraph has a clique or stable set of cardinality at least |G|τ$|G|^\tau$.
