Abstract
An edge-colored graph is called rainbow if every edge of receives a different color. The anti-Ramsey number of edge-disjoint rainbow spanning trees, denoted by , is defined as the maximum number of colors in an edge-coloring of containing no edge-disjoint rainbow spanning trees. Jahanbekam and West [J. Graph Theory, 2014] conjectured that for any fixed , whenever . In this paper, we prove this conjecture. We also determine when . Together with previous results, this gives the anti-Ramsey number of edge-disjoint rainbow spanning trees for all values of and .
