The extraction pipeline created connections to entities it could not even define. These are excluded from the cohomology analysis and reported separately. AI SYSTEM (ENTITY): 4 relationships, 0 description -> [OPPOSES] COPYRIGHT LAWS -> [ADVOCATES_FOR] IRONHACK -> [REFERENCES] COPYRIGHT -> [REGULATES] EUROPEAN UNION'S AI ACT GENERATIVE AI COPYRIGHT DISCLOSURE ACT (ENTITY): 1 relationships, 0 description <- [ADVOCATES_FOR] ADAM SCHIFF COHOMOLOGY SUMMARY ---------------------------------------------------------------------- H^0 dimension: 18 (consistent subspaces) H^1 dimension: 562 (structural contradictions) Euler characteristic: -544 C^0 dimension: 3680 C^1 dimension: 4224 Spectral gap: 1.0000 Total Dirichlet energy: 63.916126 Residual ratio: 0.7455 Is globally consistent: False INTERPRETATION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The knowledge graph contains 562 independent structural contradiction(s). These are conflicts between real sources that the GraphRAG pipeline merged silently. No retrieval strategy can resolve them because the inconsistency is in the data, not the query.
