Comments

A graph in which every node has r edges is called an r-regular graph. The triangle is symmetric because if an n-node graph is r-regular, than its complement is (n - 1 - r)-regular and two graphs are isomorphic if and only if their complements are isomorphic.

Terms may be computed without generating each graph by enumerating the number of graphs by degree sequence. A PARI program showing this technique for graphs with labeled vertices is given in A295193. Burnside's lemma can be used to extend this method to the unlabeled case. - Andrew Howroyd, Mar 08 2020
