Here is problem. Patented algorithms/software usually don't have any physical world implementation. Thus it is math by your definition.

Huh?

Take the "apple bounce" patent. I can see images move on a screen. How did that happen without a "physical world implementation"?

Note that the "cure rubber with heat" patent mentioned abouve covered a process, a set of steps. It wasn't a patent on a rubber curing machine.
