Success has many fathers ........ proverbial.
Mathematics is a success, and certainly has many fathers. It is a very old pastime, dating back to at least the Babylonian Empire. It may even predate civilization as we understand it, in other words before written history. Any attempt to decide who was the father would be futile.

And let's not forget the Indian scholar Brahmagupta, who first lay down the rules for understanding the concepts of zero and negative numbers, in 628 A.D.
