摘要
An adjacent vertex distinguishing total coloring of a graph G is a proper total coloring of G such that any pair of adjacent vertices have distinct sets of colors. The minimum number of colors needed for an adjacent vertex distinguishing total coloring of G is denoted by . In this paper, we characterize completely the adjacent vertex distinguishing total chromatic number of planar graphs G with large maximum degree Delta by showing that if Delta a parts per thousand yen14, then , and if and only if G contains two adjacent vertices of maximum degree.
