Abstract
The nonlinear Hall effect provides a new experimental tool to probe the condensed matter phases. This work presents the first real-space lattice theory of the nonlinear Hall effect, so that strong disorder can be handled to explain an unexpected fluctuation in the experiments and discover a ``localization'' of the nonlinear Hall effect. The calculation can be generalized to more crystal lattices.
