Design

Here I will layout some of the current design decisions.

If Mind Maps are your thing, here's a link to the CDT-plusplus Mind Map.

CDT-plusplus runs a simulation of spacetime that, once thermalized, can generate useful quantities such as spectral dimension or transition amplitudes.

So the basic unit is a simulation. A simulation is an algorithm (e.g. Metropolis-Hastings) which is run on a simplicial manifold (e.g. spherical, 3D). The algorithm must be run a certain minimum number of times to render the geometry of the simplicity manifold in an expected state such as Einstein-deSitter.

The geometry of the simplicial manifold determines the type of ergodic moves that can be run on it, as well as the CDT action used in the algorithm.
