Abstract

The notion of degree sequence (sometimes called valence sequence) of a graph is the basic theme in this discussion. Degree sequences are first considered in the context of simple graphs. Subsequently they are generalized to a wider setting which unifies various standard extensions of the definition of graph, and introduces further types of graph in a natural way.
