In the lecture the theory of spin polarons is reviewed on the basis of its analogy with the theory of lattice polarons. The energy dispersion curve for a single polaron in a two-dimensional antiferromagnetic square lattice is calculated in the self-consistent Born approximation. Also in self-consistent Born approximation the energy of a pair of interacting spin polarons is calculated. The results of calculations for realistic values of parameters of the model lead to the conclusion that pairing of spin polarons is not a likely mechanism of superconductivity in cuprates.
