文摘A proper k-total coloring f of the graph G(V, E) is said to be a k-vertex strong total coloring if and only if for every v ∈ V(G), the elements in N[v] are colored with different colors, where N[v] =. {u|uv E V(G)} ∪{v}. The value xT^vs(G) = min{k| there is a k-vertex strong total coloring of G} is called the vertex strong total chromatic number of G. For a 3-connected plane graph G(V, E), if the graph obtained from G(V, E) by deleting all the edges on the boundary of a face f0 is a tree, then G(V, E) is called a Halin-graph. In this paper, xT^vs,8(G) of the Halin-graph G(V,E) with A(G) 〉 6 and some special graphs are obtained.
