Most-Cited References (PageRank Top 20)

The twenty highest-PageRank authorities in the citation network. High PageRank means a reference is cited by documents that are themselves frequently cited — measuring authority, not just popularity.

Citations by Source Corpus

How many citation edges each source corpus contributes, broken down by citation type within each corpus.

White Paper: The Legal DNA of Bank Supervision

Which statutory authorities anchor the regulatory network — and how has the citation structure shifted after Dodd-Frank? This panel surfaces the most-cited legal references across five regulatory corpora. High-PageRank nodes identify the foundational authorities that constrain supervisory discretion. Pair with the topic attention panel to measure whether new domains (crypto, climate) create new citation clusters or graft onto existing ones.

Applications: Legal authority mapping, regulatory network analysis, statutory importance ranking, Dodd-Frank structural impact measurement

What PageRank tells you. A high-PageRank reference is not just frequently cited — it is cited by documents that are themselves frequently cited. It measures authority, not just popularity. References that appear across multiple corpora signal cross-agency regulatory consensus.
