Sparse Model Nexus (LLM↔Quantum continuum)

A Pharosiraptor knowledge-graph publication · snapshot 2026-07-06
Scope & honesty note. This is a proof of mechanism, not a competitive language model. Three LoRA adapters are actually trained (distilgpt2, a handful of sentences each); their demo generations are incoherent by design at this scale. The ~150 other graph nodes are a proposed type inventory — Pharosiraptor ops catalogued as candidate composable units — not trained models. Framework terms are borrowed loosely: “Tarski residual” denotes irreducible uncertainty + distribution shift, not a consequence of Tarski’s theorem; “maximal self-organized criticality” is a proposed, unmet requirement — the one composition we measured contradicts it.

WHAT THIS IS
One sparsity dial spans dense LLMs to the sparse-limit model — the minimal composable unit (a LoRA adapter, called a “quantum” here). Quanta compose via a four-operator algebra (⊕ mixture, ∘ sequential, ▷ route, ⊗ merge), selected online by a cost-aware receding-horizon planner over forecast workloads. A proposed non-redundancy requirement (“maximal criticality”) is not yet met; the planner’s leftover uncertainty is named — loosely — a “Tarski residual.” Read the scope note above before the vocabulary.

Executive view

TL;DR narrative, metrics, clusters, hubs, timeline, implications. 5–10 minute read.

Operational view

Full interactive graph — 163 nodes, 189 edges — with search, per-node detail, and complete node/edge tables. A specification/inventory, not 150 running models.

Operational demo & model ↓

Three trained LoRA quanta + the ⊕ ∘ ▷ ⊗ operator algebra over distilgpt2. Live transcript (outputs incoherent by design) and a downloadable, PEFT-standard adapter bundle.

Realized future state

The graph's Planner::PROCEDURAL + FutureFrames nodes actualized: a receding-horizon planner composing quanta online over simulated future frames, with measured regret and honestly-named leftover uncertainty.

Research note & evaluation

An honest read against arXiv:2505.18923 (GOLA): where operator-composition instincts converge, why runtime-planned composition is the advantage, and where GOLA is genuinely stronger.
