contents We study the problem of generating graphs with prescribed degree sequences for bipartite, directed, and undirected networks. We first propose a sequential method for bipartite graph generation and establish a necessary and sufficient interval condition that characterizes the admissible number of connections at each step, thereby guaranteeing global feasibility. Based on this result, we develop bipartite graph enumeration and sampling algorithms suitable for different problem sizes. We then extend these bipartite graph algorithms to the directed and undirected cases by incorporating additional connection constraints, as well as feasibility verification and symmetric connection steps, while preserving the same algorithmic principles. Finally, numerical experiments demonstrate the performance of the proposed algorithms, particularly their scalability to large instances where existing methods become computationally prohibitive.
