Abstract;The single hole doped CuO2 plane is studied by the O(3) non-linear .SIGMA. model and its CP1 representation. We have argued that, within the effective theory approaches to the S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet, the doped hole induces the half-skyrmion spin texture through the frmation of the Zhang-Rice singlet in the single hole doped system. The picture is consistent with rapid suppression of the Neel ordering by the doped holes because the half-skyrmion behaves a vortex in the condensate. The form of the excitation spectrum of the half-skyrmion is the same as that in the .PI.-flux phase.
