Realizing degree sequences in parallel

Abstract

A sequence $d$ of integers is a degree sequence if there exists a (simple) graph $G$ such that the components of $d$ are equal to the degrees of the vertices of $G$. The graph $G$ is said to be a realization of $d$. We provide an efficient parallel algorithm to realize $d$. Before our result, it was not known if the problem of realizing $d$ is in $NC$
