Thanks for contributing this! This is neat.
I will have to read the paper to give a better review of the code, but I do have a question about graph realization right off the bat

Do you need to check this degree sequence with Erdős–Gallai? Or do you return a graph that might not be a simple graph?

The graph may not be simple. The generator in NetworkX works in a similar fashion: https://networkx.org/documentation/stable/reference/generated/networkx.generators.degree_seq.configuration_model.html#configuration-model
At some point, it would be good to add a parameter to DegreeSequence
constructors that specifies that the degree sequence must be graphical.
Also, you'll have to update |

This felt like a "pragmatic" way of ensuring that the sum is even. However, this could lead to out-of-distribution values in the sequence which is probably confusing for the user. Not sure how to fix it. Probably just retry n times?
Added a possibility to generate a random graph using a configuration model. The result is a random graph with a given degree sequence. The Rust library can additionally generate degree sequences from any
