DESCRIPTION:Prof. Eric SERE\, Ceremade Dauphine\, France\nThe Peierls mode
 l describes independent electrons in a deformable one-dimensional finite o
 r infinite chain of atoms. The atoms are treated as classical objects and 
 the electrons are described by a simplified version of quantum mechanics. 
 This leads to a system of coupled\, discrete\, nonlinear and nonlocal equa
 tions. I will present some mathematical questions on this model\, some kno
 wn rigorous results\, and in particular a work in collaboration with Mauri
 cio Garcia Arroyo.
