A Strong Constraint on Ever-Present Lambda (2006)

Abstract
We show that the causal set approach to creating an ever-present cosmological 'constant' in the expanding universe is strongly constrained by the isotropy of the microwave background. Fluctuations generated by stochastic lambda generation which are consistent with COBE and WMAP observations are far too small to dominate the expansion dynamics at z. Comment: 5 pages, minor additions, published version
