Notebook 23 — Graph Embeddings of Residue-Lane Manifolds
Rolling lane trajectories become graph geometry:
rolling trajectories → lane similarity graph → Laplacian embedding
Overview
Notebook 23 turns temporal lane relationships into graph geometry.
Notebook 19 tracked temporal spectral phases across rolling residue manifolds. Notebook 23 converts those lane relationships into graph nodes, weighted edges, Laplacian embeddings, graph modes, and graph signal trajectories.
19 → temporal spectral dynamics 23 → graph manifold embeddings 29 → sparse reset-boundary emergence
The result is a learned residue-lane network: eight admissible lanes become graph nodes, and their weighted edges emerge from rolling prime-lane trajectory similarity.

Interpretation
Notebook 23 shows that residue lanes can be treated as graph nodes whose weighted edges emerge from rolling prime-lane trajectories.
The graph is not imposed as a fixed wheel. It is learned from:
- trajectory similarity,
- cosine alignment,
- covariance structure,
- and graph Laplacian geometry.
This report makes the residue manifold explicitly topological: lane relationships become a graph that can support centrality, community structure, Laplacian modes, and graph-signal dynamics.
Relationship to Neighboring Notebooks
Notebook 19 studied temporal spectral dynamics and phase continuity.
Notebook 23 converts those lane relationships into graph geometry.
Notebook 29 then uses this manifold framing to study sparse reset-boundary emergence
along the transition path 23 → 29 → 01.
