Abstract: A proper edge coloring of a graph G is called acyclic if there is no 2-colored cycle in G. The acyclic edge chromatic number of G, denoted by a′(G), is the least number of colors in an acyclic edge coloring of G. It is proved that if a trianglefree toroidal graph G has maximum degree Δ(G), then a′(G)≤Δ(G)+3.
