| contents | Given any two forests (pseudoforests) with the same degree sequence, we show that one can be transformed into the other by a sequence of 2-switches in such a way that all the intermediate graphs of the transformation are forests (pseudoforests). We also prove that the 2-switch operation perturbs minimally some well-known integer parameters in families of graphs with the same degree sequence. Then, we apply these results to conclude that the studied parameters have the interval property in those families. |
