Abstract
In this paper, I will review recent work on certain aspects of the electronic structure of conjugated polymers, and try to make contact with the work on the electronic structure of short oligomers. It is impossible to cover this vast subject except by ignoring a great deal. I therefore do not pretend to be exhaustive; instead I will cover a few topics of current concern and hope that these overlap sufficiently with the interests of people studying the properties of polydiacetylenes.
