Abstract
Quantum Hall ferromagnet is considered at integer fillings ν
provided typical Coulomb interaction energy Ec is large compared
to the cyclotron energy ωH. Low energy collective modes
consist of magnetoplasmon exciton and gapeless spin exciton. All
charged excitations have a gap. The activation energy gap for a pair
of charged topological excitations - skyrmion and antiskyrmion - is
small Δ = νωH. Electric charge of skyrmion is multiple
q=eν Q, where Q is the integer topological charge.
