To the Russian mathematician Vladimir Andreevich Steklov: „[…] Your stated desire of the Administrative Committee of the Kharkiv Mat. Society equals a refusal to me because after known protocols of the Moscow Mathematical Society I find it impossible to subject my letters to Nekrasov any changes. […]“ Markov and his younger brother Vladimir Andreevich Markov (1871–1897) proved the Markov brothers' inequality. His son, another Andrey Andreyevich Markov (1903–1979), was also a notable mathematician, making contributions to constructive mathematics and recursive function theory.
