Abstract

We discuss the geometry of trees endowed with a causal structure using the conventional framework of equilibrium statistical mechanics. We show how this ensemble is related to popular growing network models. In particular we demonstrate that on a class of afine attachment kernels the two models are identical but they can differ substantially for other choice of weights. We show that causal trees exhibit condensation even for asymptotically linear kernels. We derive general formulae describing the degree distribution, the ancestor-descendant correlation and the probability a randomly chosen node lives at a given geodesic distance from the root. It is shown that the Hausdorff dimension d_H of the causal networks is generically infinite.
