Only in that they are both instruments with doubled courses of strings. The lute is a guitar-sized instrument with the approximate range of the guitar. The mandolin is a smaller, tenor-voiced instrument.

You should be aware that it is the musician, not the musical instrument, who determines what style of music is played. However, the mandolin is associated with medieval ballads. The mandolin is similar to a guitar, but modern music is more usually played with a guitar rather than a mandolin.
The violin, viola, cello, and upright bass are chordaphones because they get their sound from strings and can be bowed or plucked.

A mandolin is a small bodied instrument that usually has 8 strings grouped in pairs to have a "4 string" effect. A mandolin has an approximate scale length of 13-14 inches. Standard tuning (starting with thickest string) is GDAE. A guitar typically has 6 strings and is a much larger bodied instrument with an approximate scale length of 24 inches. Standard tuning (starting with thickest string) is EADGBE. Overall - the guitar is a more popular instrument in most music genres.
The most similar pair of instruments are the violin and viola. Both are string instruments played with a bow, have similar construction and playing techniques, and share the same family. The primary difference lies in their size and pitch, with the viola being slightly larger and tuned to a lower pitch. This similarity allows players to transition easily between the two instruments.
It evolved from the lute c. 1350 BC which has gone through many phases and has turned into instruments such as the violin, mandolin and acoustic guitar. Instead of playing it with a bow it is just strummed and has two more strings.
Those are "concussion" instruments. They include cymbals and castanets.
