La triangulation change à travers des Pachner moves, induits eux-même par la densité du marcheur, permettant à la surface de se transformer en n’importe quelle autre surface qui lui est topologiquement équivalente. Ce modèle généralise le marcheur quantique sur un réseau triangulaire, introduit dans un article précédent par un des auteurs, et dont la limite en espace-temps retombe sur l’équation de Dirac en 2+1 dimensions. Des simulations numériques montrent que le nombre de triangles et que la courbure évoluent en exp(a log(t) - bt2), où a et b paramétrisent la façon dont la géométrie change selon la densité locale du marcheur, et que, sur le long terme, la surface redevient plate. Enfin, on montre aussi numériquement que le comportement global du marcheur reste le même sous l’influence de fluctuations spatio-temporelles aléatoires.",
