Abstract
A proper k-total coloring of a graph G is a mapping from \(V(G)\cup E(G)\) to \(\{1,2,\ldots ,k\}\) such that no two adjacent or incident elements in \(V(G)\cup E(G)\) receive the same color. Let f(v) denote the sum of the colors on the edges incident with v and the color on vertex v. A proper k-total coloring of G is called neighbor sum distinguishing if \(f(u)\ne f(v)\) for each edge \(uv\in E(G)\). Let \(\chi ''_{\Sigma }(G)\) denote the smallest integer k in such a coloring of G. Pilśniak and Woźniak conjectured that for any graph G, \(\chi ''_{\Sigma }(G)\le \Delta (G)+3\). In this paper, we show that if G is a 2-degenerate graph, then \(\chi ''_{\Sigma }(G)\le \Delta (G)+3\); Moreover, if \(\Delta (G)\ge 5\) then \(\chi ''_{\Sigma }(G)\le \Delta (G)+2\).
