 DATA[<p><strong>Abstract:</strong></p>  <p>A major target in the field of 
 superconductivity is to identify and understand the mechanisms which contr
 ol and increase the superconducting transition temperature Tc. About 30 ye
 ars ago\, Varma pointed out the possibility of enhanced superconducting in
 teractions in systems containing valence-skipping elements due to charge f
 luctuations [1]. One example is In: It skips its 2+ state and usually appe
 ars as In1+ or In3+. In GeTe\, it replaces divalent Ge giving rise to such
  a valence instability. GeTe itself is a well-known multifunctional system
  (cf.\, e.g.\, [2] and References therein). In spite of its semiconducting
  nature\, it exhibits metallic resistivity and superconducts below critica
 l temperature Tc < 350 mK due to Ge vacancies [3]. When doping In\, the su
 perconductivity is quickly suppressed. Upon further increasing the In cont
 ent\, Ge1–xInxTe exhibits a critical doping concentration xc = 0.12 wher
 e various properties change concurrently\, among them the crystal structur
 e\, the nature of the charge carriers\, and a several orders-of-magnitude 
 enhancement and subsequent suppression of the resistivity [4]. Most import
 antly\, a new superconducting phase with monotonically increasing Tc emerg
 es for x > xc. Simultaneously\, a crossover of the In valence state from 3
 + to 1+ is observed. This subtle correlation strongly suggests that the su
 perconducting phase in Ge1–xInxTe is a direct consequence of the valence
  instability of the In dopant. In this talk\, we will present a comprehens
 ive discussion of the characteristic features of this solid solution and d
 iscuss a model which accounts satisfactorily for all observations.</p>  <p
