    The conference gathered around 50 scientists from all over the world working in the field of general relativity theory. The meeting consisted of four sessions. Each session was devoted to a certain subject of theory of gravitation that is of current research interest and that poses challenging problems to mathematicians.
    Session Mathematical Relativity was devoted to the study of global properties of space-time: space-time singularities, event and Cauchy horizons, structure of space-time infinity. Session Mathematical Cosmology was concerned with modeling the observable cosmological properties of our Universe by exact solutions of the Einstein equations. Session entitled Relativistic Two-Body Problem presented the current state of understanding of the two-body problem in Einsteinian theory of gravitation. Various approximation techniques employed in solving the problem, both analytical and numerical, were discussed. Session Gravitational-Wave Data Analysis contained discussions of statistical methods used to detect gravitational-wave signals in the data of the detector. The first results of the analysis of the real data collected by currently working gravitational-wave detectors were presented.
    Below we attach presentations given by the speakers in all sessions in the formats provided by the authors.
