Necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of positive integers to be the degree sequence of a 3-connected simple graph are detailed. Conditions are also given under which such a sequence is necessarily 3-connected i.e. the sequence…
A sequence of nonnegative integers \pi =(d_1,d_2,...,d_n) is graphic if there is a (simple) graph G with degree sequence \pi. In this case, G is said to realize or be a realization of \pi. Degree sequence results in the literature generally…
A simple graph is triangular if every edge is contained in a triangle. A sequence of integers is graphical if it is the degree sequence of a simple graph. Egan and Nikolayevsky recently conjectured that every graphical sequence whose terms…
An integer-valued sequence $\pi=(d_1, \ldots, d_n)$ is {\em graphic} if there is a simple graph $G$ with degree sequence of $\pi$. We say the $\pi$ has a realization $G$. Let $Z_3$ be a cyclic group of order three. A graph $G$ is {\em…
This note describes necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of positive integers to be the degree sequence of a connected simple graph. Conditions are also given under which a sequence is necessarily connected i.e. the sequence…
A sequence of nonnegative integers $\pi$ is {\it graphic} if it is the degree sequence of some graph $G$. In this case we say that $G$ is a \textit{realization} of $\pi$, and we write $\pi=\pi(G)$. A graphic sequence $\pi$ is {\it…
For many types of graphs, criteria have been discovered that give necessary and sufficient conditions for an integer sequence to be the degree sequence of such a graph. These criteria tend to take the form of a set of inequalities, and in…
This note gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of non-negative integers to be the degree sequence of a connected simple graph. This result is implicit in a paper of Hakimi. A new alternative characterisation of these…
A finite non-increasing sequence of positive integers $d = (d_1\geq \cdots\geq d_n)$ is called a degree sequence if there is a graph $G = (V,E)$ with $V = \{v_1,\ldots,v_n\}$ and $deg(v_i)=d_i$ for $i=1,\ldots,n$. In that case we say that…
We present a sufficient condition for a pair of finite integer sequences to be degree sequences of a bipartite graph, based only on the lengths of the sequences and their largest and smallest elements.
For a positive integer \( k \), let \( [k] = \{1, 2, \ldots, k\} \). Let \( h \) be a non-negative integer, and let \( n \) be a multiple of \( h + 1 \). Define \( H \) as the disjoint union of \( n/(h+1) \) cliques (each of size \( h + 1…
A simple graph is called triangular if every edge of it belongs to a triangle. We conjecture that any graphical degree sequence all terms of which are greater than or equal to 4 has a triangular realisation, and establish this conjecture…
There are a variety of existing conditions for a degree sequence to be graphic. When a degree sequence satisfies any of these conditions, there exists a graph that realizes the sequence. We formulate several novel sufficient graphicality…
Let G be a simple graph without isolated vertices. For a vertex i in G, the degree d_i is the number of vertices adjacent to i and the average 2-degree m_i is the mean of the degrees of the vertices which are adjacent to i. The sequence of…
In this paper, we introduce a new concept namely degree polynomial for vertices of a simple graph. This notion leads to a concept namely degree polynomial sequence which is stronger than the concept of degree sequence. After obtaining the…
It is known that complete multipartite graphs are determined by their distance spectrum but not by their adjacency spectrum. The Seidel spectrum of a graph $G$ on more than one vertex does not determine the graph, since any graph obtained…
The degree sequence of a graph is a numerical method to characterize the properties of graphs. Generalized forms of degree sequences exist for complete graphs and complete graphs. Nikolopolus et al. characterized the number of spanning…
Necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of positive integers to be the degree sequence of a k-connected simple graph are detailed. Conditions are also given under which such a sequence is necessarily k-connected.
A result of Deza, Levin, Meesum, and Onn shows that the problem of deciding if a given sequence is the degree sequence of a 3-uniform hypergraph is NP complete. We tackle this problem in the random case and show that a random integer…
For given a graph $H$, a graphic sequence $\pi=(d_1,d_2,...,d_n)$ is said to be potentially $H$-graphic if there exists a realization of $\pi$ containing $H$ as a subgraph. In this paper, we characterize the potentially $H$-graphic…
