These questions are solely intended for making curiosity in mathematics. It is a small effort to open a small window into the great world of mathematics. I hope while searching for the answers for these questions, you will get thrilled about the subject. If this search increases your interest in mathematics, I would be very happy.   .          There are 3 famous mathematicians of the same family. Their last part of the names are the same.
