Abstract
Martin Bača et al. [2] introduced the problem of determining the total vertex irregularity strengths of graphs. In this paper we discuss how the addition of new edge affect the total vertex irregularity strength.
Keywords: graph labeling, irregularity strength, total assignment, vertex irregular total labeling
