I have an idea that I believe will revolutionize science publication and potentially turn into something akin to Google. I'm looking to partner with a mathematician who can help design the algorithm with the ideas provided by myself and potential science partners. None of us will be working for money, this will be an equity split with a potential ICO one day. Please PM me LinkedIn and your qualifications/knowledge about search ranking algorithms, as I have no time at all for scammers etc. My expertise is in innovation, startups, and marketing. I've run successful projects before.
Thanks.
First thing first, we would love to know about your successful projects before. Regarding pagerank, bog G has long ago hidden the pagerank from public. For many years it was not updated in public until they announced that even the PR api unavailable for anyone. There are speculations however that the pagerank algorithm is still there and Google uses it as a secret factor for ranking pages.
To get a mathematician to decode the algorithm which is not in public domain would require someone who can hack the Google database and it may take upto generations to get them, and even by the time they achieve to get them, perhaps it will be a part of pre historic relevance.
Since you are planning something akin to Google, instead of copying it, why can't you think out of the box and and bring out something better than them with your own algorithm not dependant on any third party search engines?
