1,3

Also called Eulerian graphs of strength 1.

"Switching" a graph at a node complements all the edges incident with that node. The illustration (see link) shows the 3 switching classes on 4 nodes. Switching at any node is the equivalence relation.

"Switching" a signed simple graph at a node negates the signs of all edges incident with that node.

A graph is an Euler graph iff every node has even degree. It need not be connected. (Note that some graph theorists require an Euler graph to be connected so it has an Euler circuit, and call these graphs "even" graphs.)

The objects being counted in this sequence are unlabeled.
