Abstract
The possibility of embedding arbitrary causal sets into manifolds is i nvestigated. This issue is relevant to the nature of any quantum theor y of gravity based upon causal sets. It is also important when causal sets are merely used as an alternative method of discretizing calculat ions within the realm of classical general relativity.
