$Δ+300$ is a Bound on the Adjacent Vertex Distinguishing Edge Chromatic Number
Abstract
Description
An adjacent vertex distinguishing edge-coloring or an \avd-coloring of a simple graph $G$ is a proper edge-coloring of $G$ such that no pair of adjacent vertices meets the same set of colors. We prove that every graph with maximum degree $Δ$ and with no isolated edges has an \avd-coloring with at most $Δ+300$ colors, provided that $Δ>10^{20}$.
