Abstract

The neighbor-distinguishing total chromatic number $$\chi ''_{a}(G)$$χa′′(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of colors required for a proper total coloring of G such that any two adjacent vertices have different sets of colors. In this paper, we show that if G is a planar graph with $$\Delta =12$$Δ=12, then $$13\le \chi ''_{a}(G)\le 14$$13≤χa′′(G)≤14, and moreover $$\chi ''_{a}(G)=14$$χa′′(G)=14 if and only if G contains two adjacent 12-vertices.
