Abstract
A poisson process on with causal structure inherited from the the usual Minkowski metric on has a normalised discrete causal distance given by the height of the longest causal chain normalised by . We prove that restricted to a compact set converges in probability in the sense of Noldus to with the Minkowksi metric.
