摘要
A proper edge coloring of a graph G using the color set is called neighbor sum distinguishing if for any pair of adjacent vertices x and y the sum of colors taken on the edges incident to x is different from the sum of colors taken on the edges incident to y. The smallest value of k in such a coloring of G is denoted by . In this paper, we show that for any simple subcubic graph G. This improves a result in Flandrin et al. (Graphs Combin 29:1329-1336, 2013), which says that every cubic graph G has chi(Sigma)' (G) <= 8.
