The numerical results show that the spatial nonlocality of optical response can cause a radiation shift(blue-shift) for the spectrum of the resonant radiation force, which is dependent on the CQWN width ratio, the barrier height, and polarized states sensitively. It is also confirmed that the resonant radiation force is steerable by the incident and polarized directions of incident light. This work may provide an advantageous method for detecting internal quantum properties of nanostructures, and open novel and raising possibilities for optical manipulation of nano-objects using laser-induced radiation force.展开更多

Let f(v)(S(v)) denote the sum(set) of the color of vertex v and the colors of the edges incident with v. The total coloring Ф is called neighbor sum distinguishing if (f(u) ≠ f(v)) for each edge uv∈ E(G). We say that Фis neighbor set distinguishing or adjacent vertex distinguishing if S(u) ≠ S(v) for each edge uv ∈ E(G). For both problems, we have conjectures that such colorings exist for any graph G if k 〉 △(G) + 3. The maximum average degree of G is the maximum of the average degree of its non-empty subgraphs, which is denoted by mad (G). In this paper, by using the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz and the discharging method, we prove that these two conjectures hold for sparse graphs in their list versions. More precisely, we prove that every graph G with maximum degree A(G) and maximum average degree mad(G) has ch''∑(G) 〈 △(G) + 3 (where ch''∑(G) is the neighbor sum distinguishing total choice number of G) if there exists a pair (k, m) ∈ {(6, 4), (5, 18/5), (4, 16)} such that △(G) 〉 k and mad (G) 〈 m.展开更多
