Given the degree sequence d of a graph, the realization graph of d is the
graph having as its vertices the labeled realizations of d, with two vertices
adjacent if one realization may be obtained from the other via an
edge-switching operation. We describe a connection between Cartesian products
in realization graphs and the canonical decomposition of degree sequences
described by R.I. Tyshkevich and others. As applications, we characterize the
degree sequences whose realization graphs are triangle-free graphs or
hypercubes.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figure
