Abstract: (arXiv)

We find evidence for a continuum limit of a particular causal set dynamics which depends on only a single ``coupling constant''

p

and is easy to simulate on a computer. The model in question is a stochastic process that can also be interpreted as 1-dimensional directed percolation, or in terms of random graphs.
