The paper the graph is built around
Solid edge
Similarity, not citation — two papers that cite the same works, or are cited together. Fades with distance from the seed.
Dashed edge
A real citation, arrow pointing at the older paper. Turn these on with Citation links.
Jump trail
Where you jumped from — by whichever of the four Find by routes was set: Read together (co-citation), Shared foundations (shared rare references), Same ideas (shared subject keywords, no citation tie at all), or Linked through a third paper (a shared intermediate). Every route guarantees no direct citation link between the two papers, so the trail records a path citations could not have found. The ringed nodes it connects are past seeds, their ring fading the further back along the path they sit.
