Fast Uniform Generation of Random Graphs with Given Degree Sequences

Abstract: In this paper we provide an algorithm that generates a graph with given degree sequence uniformly at random. Provided that ∆ 4 = O(m), where ∆ is the maximal degree and m is the number of edges, the algorithm runs in expected time O(m). Our algorithm significantly improves the previously most efficient uniform sampler, which runs in expected time O(m 2 ∆ 2 ) for the same family of degree sequences. Our method uses a novel ingredient which progressively relaxes restrictions on an object being generated uniforml… Show more

“…• Recent theoretical results by Arman et al [24] (building on [143,236]) improve upon rejection sampling by transforming a multi-graph sampled with CM into simple graphs -one defect at a time. The technique is very similar to the one sketched for I R (see Section 2.9.4), but uses more switches and treats high asymptotically dominated by the expected number of edges.…”

“…In a rst step, Gao et al [143] introduce additional switches which do not decrease the number of defects but allow for tighter bounds on the rejection probability. I R [24] additionally allows triple edges in the multi-graph and adds new switches to remove them. The authors further accelerate the switching process by simplifying the way nodes participating in a switch are sampled.…”
