Revisiting the problem of the single hole in an antiferromagnet
Propagation of the single hole introduced into the antiferromagneticground state is one of the most studied problems in "cuprate physics",for it can be solved in a relatively controlled manner. Recently arenewed interest into this topic has been triggered by the possibilityof simulating hole-doped antiferromagnets in the cold atom experiments.In this talk I would like to discuss some of our most recent studieson the propagation of the single hole in the antiferromagnet using themagnon language with a special attention paid to the interactionbetween the magnons. To this end, I will introduce an intuitivepicture which explains why the electron's spin and charge degrees offreedom can separate in a one-dimensional lattice, though a similarsituation cannot occur in two dimensions. Next, I will show thatthe string potential, which is believed to be felt by the hole movingin a two-dimensional Ising antiferromagnet, is significantly destroyedby the magnon-magnon interactions.
