I thank to them all for their quite good talks.From this and the previous meetings I support the view that if one considers the contributions presented in, e.g., two successive BNMPF meetings they are rather representative of the researches that have been done in this area in Brazil, and most of the contributions reveal a clear emphasis on theoretical and (or) mathematical aspects of Gravitation and Cosmology [1].The researches in modern cosmology can be broadly grouped in five domains: i. Astrophysical cosmology;ii. Observational cosmology;iii.…”
