Localization corrections to the anomalous Hall effect in a ferromagnet
We calculate the localization corrections to the anomalous Hall conductivity
related to the contribution of spin-orbit scattering into the current vertex
(side-jump mechanism). We show that in contrast to the ordinary Hall effect,
there exists a nonvanishing localization correction to the anomalous Hall
resistivity. The correction to the anomalous Hall conductivity vanishes in the
case of side-jump mechanism, but is nonzero for the skew scattering. The total
correction to the nondiagonal conductivity related to both mechanisms, does not
compensate the correction to the diagonal conductivity.Comment: 7 pages with 7 figure
