Popis: Let $f: V(G)\cup E(G)\rightarrow \{1,2,\dots,k\}$ be a non-proper total $k$-coloring of $G$. Define a weight function on total coloring as $$\phi(x)=f(x)+\sum\limits_{e\ni x}f(e)+\sum\limits_{y\in N(x)}f(y),$$ where $N(x)=\{y\in V(G)|xy\in E(G)\}$. If $\phi(x)\neq \phi(y)$ for any edge $xy\in E(G)$, then $f$ is called a neighbor full sum distinguishing total $k$-coloring of $G$. The smallest value $k$ for which $G$ has such a coloring is called the neighbor full sum distinguishing total chromatic number of $G$ and denoted by fgndi$_{\sum}(G)$. The coloring is an extension of neighbor sum distinguishing non-proper total coloring. In this paper we conjecture that fgndi$_{\sum}(G)\leq 3$ for any connected graph $G$ of order at least three. We prove that the conjecture is true for (i) paths and cycles; (ii) 3-regular graphs and (iii) stars, complete graphs, trees, hypercubes, bipartite graphs and complete $r$-partite graphs. In particular, complete graphs can achieve the upper bound for the above conjecture.
