[Advaita-l] Regarding the Pancharatra, Shankara is one with Purvamimamsa

 //In any case Bhaskara who pre-dated Ramanuja has clearly said Badarayana is the author of the brahma sutra.//


But did Bhaskara identify this Badarayana with Vyasa? That is my question.

Leaving aside the question of whether bhagavatam really existed by the time of Ramanuja, what I want to know is whether Ramanuja identifies Badarayana with Vyasa. I was told there is no such equation, but I have not read Ramanuja's BSB, so I am not able to confirm it. 

I think you can make a search in George Thibaut's translation of the Sri Bhashyam of Ramanuja.  If it is a searchable document the task will be easy. In any case Bhaskara who pre-dated Ramanuja has clearly said Badarayana is the author of the brahma sutra.
