Причинные множества — направление исследований в квантовой гравитации, основанное на математической гипотезе о дискретной структуре пространства-времени и о частичной упорядоченности его точек, физически означающей Шаблон:Не переведено 5 между событиями в них с сохранением лоренцевской инвариантности.

В теории причинных множеств важную роль играет теорема Дэвида Маламента (Шаблон:Iw), которая гласит, что если существует биективное отображение между двумя Шаблон:Не переведено 5 областями пространства-времени, которое сохраняет их причинную структуру, то это отображение является конформно изоморфным. Конформный множитель, который остается неопределенным, связан с объемом областей в пространстве-времени. Его можно найти, указав элемент объема для каждой точки пространства-времени. Общий объем области пространства-времени затем может быть найден путем подсчета количества точек в этой области.

Определение

Причинным множеством называется множество <math>C</math> с отношением частичной упорядоченности <math>\preceq</math>, обладающее свойствами:

• Рефлексивность: Для всех <math>x \in C</math>, выполняется <math> x \preceq x </math>.
• Антисимметричность: Для всех <math>x, y \in C</math> из справедливости <math> x \preceq y</math> и <math>y \preceq x</math> следует <math>x = y</math>.
• Транзитивность: Для всех <math>x, y, z \in C</math>, из справедливости <math> x \preceq y</math> и <math>y \preceq z </math> следует <math> x \preceq z </math>.
• Шаблон:Не переведено 5: Для всех <math>x, z \in C</math>, выполняется <math>|\{y \in C | x \preceq y \preceq z\}| < \aleph_0</math>.

Если <math>x \preceq y </math> и <math>x \neq y</math>, то используют обозначение <math>x \prec y</math>.

Множество <math>C</math> представляет набор событий пространства-времени, а отношение порядка <math>\preceq</math> представляет причинно-следственную связь между событиями (аналогичную идею в лоренцевом многообразии см. Шаблон:Не переведено 5).

Хотя в этом определении используется рефлексивное соглашение, мы могли бы выбрать нерефлексивное соглашение, в котором отношение порядка нерефлексивно.

Шаблон:Не переведено 5 лоренцева многообразия (без замкнутой Шаблон:Не переведено 5) удовлетворяет первым трем условиям. Это условие локальной конечности, которое вводит дискретность пространства-времени.
