Abstract

The problem of the single-hole motion in a two-dimensional quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet is examined in the t-J model. By introducing a kind of slave-fermion representation for Hubbard operators a hole is treated as a spinless fermion strongly interacting with spin-1/2 degrees of freedom. We suggest an analytic approach based on a decoupling procedure for two-time fermionic Green functions that allows us to describe a hole as a magnetic polaron of a minimal size (i.e., involving one-step ``string'' spin excitations) and reproduce the main features characteristic of a one-hole band in a quantum antiferromagnet. A generalization of the procedure in the spirit of the Lanczos approach to extend the internal structure of the magnetic polaron is discussed.
