Title
Sufficient Conditions for Graphicality of Bidegree Sequences.
Abstract
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 criteria that depend on the number of elements in the sequence, corresponding to the number of nodes in an associated graph, and the mean degree of the sequence. These conditions, which are stated in terms of bidegree sequences for directed graphs, are easier to apply than classic necessary and sufficient graphicality conditions involving multiple inequalities. They are also more flexible than more recent graphicality conditions, in that they imply graphicality of some degree sequences not covered by those conditions. The form of our results will allow them to be easily used for the generation of graphs with particular degree sequences for applications.
