This paper establishes a formal calculus for Lacanian psychoanalytic operations through topological principles of connectivity, connection, and dimension. By mapping metaphor and metonymy onto distinct mathematical structures, we reveal the fundamental combinatorics governing symbolic substitution and associative chains.
