A well-known conjecture of Hartsfield and Ringel (1994) is that every connected graph other than $K_2$ admits an antimagic labelling. In 2017, two sets of authors (Arumugam, Premalatha, Ba\\v{c}a \\& Semani\\v{c}ov\\'{a}-Fe\\v{n}ov\\v{c}\\'{i}kov\\'{a} and Bensmail, Senhaji \\& Szabo Lyngsie) independently introduced the weaker notion of a local antimagic labelling, where only adjacent vertices must be distinguished. Both sets of authors conjectured that any connected graph other than $K_2$ admits a local antimagic labelling. Recently, Haslegrave (2018) proved that every graph without isolated edges admits a local antimagic labeling. A graph $G = (V, E)$ is said to be local antimagic total if there exists a bijection $f: V\\cup E \\to\\{1,2,\\ldots ,|V\\cup E|\\}$ such that for any pair of adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$, $w(u)\\not= w(v)$, where the induced vertex weight $w(u)= f(u) +\\sum f(e)$, with $e$ ranging over all the edges incident to $u$. The local antimagic total chromatic number of $G$, denoted by $\\chi_{lat}(G)$, is the minimum number of distinct induced vertex weights over all local antimagic total labelings of $G$. In this note, we proved that every graph admits a local antimagic total labeling. We then determine the exact value of $\\chi_{lat}(G)$ for some standard graphs $G$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-06-25T05:57:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C78", "05C69" ], "keywords": [ "local antimagic total labeling", "local antimagic total chromatic number", "induced vertex weight", "local antimagic labelling", "adjacent vertices" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
