Abstract

We calculate the Nernst signal in disordered conductors with the chemical potential near the mobility edge. The Nernst effect originates from the interference of itinerant and localized-carrier contributions to the thermomagnetic transport. It reveals a strong temperature and magnetic field dependence, which describes quantitatively the anomalous Nernst signal in high-Tc cuprates.
