文摘Let G(V, E) be a simple connected graph and k be positive integers. A mapping f from V∪E to {1, 2, ··· , k} is called an adjacent vertex-distinguishing E-total coloring of G(abbreviated to k-AVDETC), if for uv ∈ E(G), we have f(u) ≠ f(v), f(u) ≠ f(uv), f(v) ≠ f(uv), C(u) ≠C(v), where C(u) = {f(u)}∪{f(uv)|uv ∈ E(G)}. The least number of k colors required for which G admits a k-coloring is called the adjacent vertex-distinguishing E-total chromatic number of G is denoted by x^e_(at) (G). In this paper, the adjacent vertexdistinguishing E-total colorings of some join graphs C_m∨G_n are obtained, where G_n is one of a star S_n , a fan F_n , a wheel W_n and a complete graph K_n . As a consequence, the adjacent vertex-distinguishing E-total chromatic numbers of C_m∨G_n are confirmed.
