We use algebraic topology to study the stochastic mo- tion of cellular cycles in a finite CW complex. Inspired by statis- tical mechanics, we introduce a homological observable called the average current. The latter measures the average flux of the prob- ability in the process. In the low temperature, adiabatic limit, we prove that the average current fractionally quantizes, in which the denominators are combinatorial invariants of the CW complex.
