Forgive me for my ignorance, but I'm very surprised to learn that there are [two](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Matveyevich_Vinogradov) [Vinogradovs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Askold_Ivanovich_Vinogradov), both famous in the field of analytic number theory. Guessing from their names and [the Russian naming convention](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patronymic), is one the son of the other?



Two Vinogradovs? Is one the son of the other?
The answer seems to be no. It is hard to find direct confirmation, but every time their names are mentioned together it is made clear that there's no relationship.

In this [obituary in the Russian Mathematical Surveys](http://www.numbertheory.org/obituaries/RMS/vinogradov/obituary/page1.html) there's also no mention of him having children, let alone another somewhat famous soviet mathematician.


Ivan Matveyevich Vinogradov's [Wikipedia article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Matveyevich_Vinogradov#Personality_and_career) also mentions that he never married.
