Abstract
A theory for the statics and domain structure of a coarse grained model for Charge Density Wave is presented. Arguments for exponents and exponent relations are given.It is shown that in the case of elastic instabilities the correlation exponents are smaller then the naive exponents 2/d. The relaxation is connected with the statics of this model in and below the critical point.It is shown that below and in the critical point the system does not develop any strain singularities. There is a. diverging discontinuity between the width of the surface in the moving state and in the critical point. Phase slips are expected to have an effect only above the critical point in the moving state.
