Question: Are Anatoly Karatsuba and Nicolai A. Vasiliev both Russian?
Context: Valeri Ivanovich Vasiliev (Russian: Валерий Иванович Васильев ) (August 3, 1949 – April 19, 2012) was a Russian ice hockey defenceman, who competed for the USSR.  An eight-time Soviet all-star, Vasiliev was captain of the national team, for which he played 13 years.  Born in Gorky, Soviet Union, he trained at Dynamo in Moscow. Vladimir Aleksandrovich Smirnov (1931–12 February 1996, <a href="">) was a Russian philosopher.  He worked at both Tomsk University in Siberia and later at the Department of Logic of the Institute of Philosophy Moscow.  He revived interest in the work of Nicolai A. Vasiliev. Anatoly Alexandrovitch Vasiliev (Russian: Анато́лий Алекса́ндрович Васи́льев ; born May 4, 1942, Penza Oblast) is a noted Russian theatre director and one of the leading European contemporary stage directors.  He is artistic director of the Moscow Theatre "School of Dramatic Arts", Théâtre de l'Europe, and professor of drama in Lyon, France. Nicolai Alexandrovich Vasiliev (Russian: Николай Александрович Васильев ), also Vasil'ev, Vassilieff, Wassilieff (11 July [O.S. 29 June] 1880 – December 31, 1940), was a Russian logician, philosopher, psychologist, poet.  He was a forerunner of paraconsistent and multi-valued logics. The Karatsuba algorithm is a fast multiplication algorithm.  It was discovered by Anatoly Karatsuba in 1960 and published in 1962.  It reduces the multiplication of two "n"-digit numbers to at most formula_1 single-digit multiplications in general (and exactly formula_2 when "n" is a power of 2).  It is therefore faster than the classical algorithm, which requires "n" single-digit products.  For example, the Karatsuba algorithm requires 3 = 59,049 single-digit multiplications to multiply two 1024-digit numbers ("n" = 1024 = 2), whereas the classical algorithm requires (2) = 1,048,576.

Having trained with Konstantin Stanislavski, Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko, and Michael Chekhov, her work integrated the approaches and emphases of all three, with a particular focus on Stanislavski's technique of "active analysis" in the rehearsal of plays.  She worked as a character actor, a theatre director, and a teacher.  Her students included the actor Oleg Yefremov, the playwright Victor Rozov, and the directors Anatoly Vasiliev and Adolf Shapiro.
