Abstract
The nonlinear quantum conductance of a metallic single-wall nanotube induced by a few single impurities, is studied theoretically. It is shown that the conductance is an oscillatory function of applied voltage and oscillation pattern depends on the diameter of nanotube and spatial distribution of impurities on it.
