The authors apply the spin-wave theory with the additional constraint of zero staggered magnetization to investigate the two-dimensional t-J model in the paramagnetic state in the ranges of hole concentrations 0.02 [approx lt] x [approx lt] 0.17 and temperatures T [approx lt] 100 K. In this region the hole spectrum is nonmetallic and contains a pseudogap with properties similar to those observed in Bi2212 photoemission. The calculated spin correlation length, susceptibility, spin-lattice relaxation times at the Cu and O sites and Cu spin-echo decay time are in qualitative and in some cases in quantitative agreement with experiment in underdoped YBa[sub 2]Cu[sub 3]O[sub 6+y]. The temperature dependences of these quantities are typical for the quantum disordered regime with a pseudogap in the spectrum of magnetic excitations. In the Eliashberg formalism the hole-magnon interaction was found to be unable alone to give rise to superconductivity. With inclusion of a moderate interaction with apex oxygen vibrations, high-[Tc]'s are obtained for even frequency d[sub x[sup 2][minus]y[sup 2]] pairing.
