We develop a microscopic theory of charged excitations in an SU(2) Chern ferromagnet and obtain closed-form wavefunctions for a hierarchy of charge-$e$ spin polaron states binding an arbitrary number of spin flips. In an ideal Chern-$1$…

Polarons are among the most fundamental quasiparticles emerging in interacting many-body systems, forming already at the level of a single mobile dopant. In the context of the two-dimensional Fermi-Hubbard model, such polarons are predicted…
