Abstract
We construct new geometric realizations of simplicial and pre-simplicial sets where the standard -simplex, viewed as the space of probability measures on elements, is replaced by the space of -valued random variables, with the topology of probability convergence. We prove that the map which associates to a random variable its probability law is an homotopy equivalence from these new geometric realizations to the classical ones. Finally, we prove that this realization provides a new Quillen equivalence between simplicial sets and topological spaces.
