Abstract
The nonlinear thermoelectric effect in a disordered metal due to the n onlocal corrections to the thermoelectric current is investigated. We have found that the electron-electron interaction makes the thermoelec tric response nonlinear at low temperatures even if the applied electr ic field of temperature gradient is constant, Both the heat current in duced by the electric field and the electric current induced by the te mperature gradient are discussed.
