We prove that if G is a graph without 3-cycles and 4-cycles, then the
discrete cubical homology of G is trivial in dimension d, for all d\ge 2. We
also construct a sequence { G_d } of graphs such that this homology is
non-trivial in dimension d for d\ge 1. Finally, we show that the discrete
cubical homology induced by certain coverings of G equals the ordinary singular
homology of a 2-dimensional cell complex built from G, although in general it
differs from the discrete cubical homology of the graph as a whole.Comment: Minor changes, background information adde
