Abstract
Two algorithms for determining the coordinates of optical vortices are considered. In one of them, the vortex position is found from the branching of interference fringes, and in the second algorithm, by processing the distribution of gradients of the wave front. It is shown that both algorithms allow recording coordinates with high accuracy; in addition, it is possible to determine displacements of singular points resulting from radiation diffraction Keywords: optical vortices, branch points of interference fringes, local inclinations, Shack-Hartmann sensor
