Abstract A k-total coloring of a graph G is a mapping φ: V (G) ∪ E(G) →{1, 2, . . . , k} such that no two adjacent or incident elements in V (G) ∪ E(G) receive the same color. Let f(v) denote the sum of the color on the vertex v and the colors on all edges incident with v. We say that φ is a k-neighbor sum distinguishing total coloring of G if f(u) ≠ f(v) for each edge uv ∈ E(G). Denote the smallest value k in such a coloring of G. Pilśniak andWoźniak conjectured that for any simple graph with maximum degree Δ(G), . In this paper, by using the famous Combinatorial Nullstellensatz, we prove that for K4-minor free graph G with Δ(G)≥5, if G contains no two adjacent Δ-vertices, otherwise, .
