In 1988 the First Alexander Friedmann International Seminar on Gravitation and Cosmology devoted to the centenary of his birth took place in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg). Proceedings were published in A. A. Friedmann Centenery Volume, ed. M. A. Markov, V. A. Berezin and V. F. Mukhanov (World Scientific, Singapore, 1989). There a decision was made to organize Alexander Friedmann Laboratory for Theoretical Physics in St. Petersburg which formally was realized in 1991.
In
September 12 - 19, 1993 Alexander Friedmann Laboratory of Theoretical
Physics together with Central Astronomical Observatory at Pulkovo of
Russian Academy of Sciences organized in St. Petersburg the Second
Alexander Friedmann International Seminar on Gravitation and
Cosmology and Proceedings of the Second Alexander Friedmann
International Seminar on Gravitation and Cosmology (Ed. Yu. N.
Gnedin, A. A. Grib and V. M. Mostepanenko, Central Astronomical
Observatory at Pulkovo of Russia Academy of Sciences and Friedmann
Laboratory Publishing, St. Petersburg, Russia, 1994) were published.
The Third Alexander Friedmann International Seminar on
Gravitation and Cosmology took place in July 4 - 12, 1995 in St.
Petersburg and was organized by the same organizations as the Second
one and Proceedings of the Third Alexander Friedmann International
Seminar on Gravitation and Cosmology (Ed. Yu. N. Gnedin, A. A. Grib
and V. M. Mostepanenko, Friedmann Laboratory Publishing, St.
Petersburg, Russia, 1995) were published.
The Fourth Alexander
Friedmann International Seminar on Gravitation and Cosmology was
organized in St. Petersburg in June 17 - 25, 1998 by the Pulkovo
Astronomical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences and by
the A. Friedmann Laboratory for Theoretical Physics. Proceedings of
the Fourth Alexander Friedmann International Seminar on Gravitation
and Cosmology (Ed. Yu. N. Gnedin, A. A. Grib, V. M. Mostepanenko and
W. A. Rodrigues Jr., Jnstituto de Matematica, Estatistica e
Computacao Cientica Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Campinas,
Brasil, Pulkovo Astronomical Observatory of the Russian Academy of
Sciences, Friedmann Laboratory for Theoretical Physics, St.
Petersburg, Russia) were published in 1999. It was dedicated to
Professor Andrey A. Grib, chairman of the IInd-IVth Friedmann
International Seminars at St. Petersburg on the occasion of his 60-th
birthday.
The Fifth Alexander Friedmann International Seminar
on Gravitation and Cosmology was held at Joao Pessoa (Brazil) 24 - 30
April 2002. It was organized by the Federal University of Paraiba and
by the Alexander Friedmann Laboratory for Theoretical Physics.
