Mat. algorithm: patenting, question of authorship?
Interested in the following question. For example, you came up with a new algorithm for sorting arrays or constructing a Voronoi diagram. And you want to extract some profit from this very fact. Even if not in the form of money, but a point in a biography or resume. Is it possible to somehow document the authorship in the invention of this algorithm?
PS: As far as I know, in Russia (Ukraine is of interest, but almost certainly there is no special difference) mat. models and algorithms is expressly prohibited.

Publish in a scientific journal. If you publish in a normal foreign journal, then the reviewers will simply not let you publish plagiarism.
I think for a summary of a note in an authoritative mathematical journal will suffice.
In general, patenting is not prohibited, if I understand GK-4 correctly. But, it is allowed to patent only, like, some engineering layouts. That is, the algorithm simply does not fall into the category of what can be patented. And it is right. Because, in six months, someone else will guess this algorithm, and he cannot be forbidden to do it.
If you need recognition of authorship - just publish. In plagiarism (or in ignorance of related works), then it will always be possible to catch the adversary by referring to the corresponding article.
It is possible to circumvent the law, make a program based on this algorithm, and register it with the Patent Office as intellectual property.
You can publish in the journal of graduate students and doctoral students www.jurnal.org/ (for money, but relatively cheaply) - this is tantamount to a scientific publication.
