The degree sequence of a graph is a list (in decreasing order) of the number of relationships of each person in the graph. In the case of Alice, John, Bob, Mary and Sean, it’s <2,1,1,1,1>. (Alice has two relationships, everyone else has one). Degree sequences are properties of unlabelled graphs; there’s no way to tell who’s the person with the two relationships unless you know the labelling of the graph. Graphs with the same degree sequence share various properties. Read more «One or two labelled graphs try isomorphic when they represent a similar topological relationships»
