Abstract
Hall conductance as the Chern numbers of the Berry connection in the magnetic Brillouin zone is calculated for a realistic multi band tight-band model of graphene with non-orthogonal basis. It is confirmed that the envelope of coincides with a semi-classical result when magnetic field is sufficiently small. The Hall resistivity from the weak-field Boltzmann theory also explains the overall behaviour of the if the Fermi surface is composed of a single energy band. The plateaux of are explained from semi-classical quantization and necessary modification is proposed for the Dirac fermion regimes.
