The acyclic digraph cellular–singular cubical homology conjecture

Let GG be a digraph. Write Hcell(G;R)H_*^{\operatorname{cell}}(G;\mathbb R) for its cellular homology and Hc(G;R)H_*^c(G;\mathbb R) for its singular cubical homology. The cellular–singular cubical homology conjecture. If GG is acyclic, then

Hcell(G;R)Hc(G;R).H_*^{\operatorname{cell}}(G;\mathbb R)\cong H_*^c(G;\mathbb R).

In particular, the admissible relations among the admissible pairs are the boundary conditions in the singular cubical homology. The conjecture identifies the cellular chain construction with the singular cubical theory for acyclic digraphs; the paper motivates it through the relation between these complexes but does not state a resolution.
