On the first group of A3 cohomology of graphs

We are analyzing properties of the first group of A3 graph cohomology. We concentrate on the grading implied by the interpretation of Hochschild homology as graph homology of a polygon, that is (1, 2v-3).
We work with homology because this approach enables us to establish straightforward connections to the homology of simplicial complexes built on our graph. Precisely, the group H0, 2v-3A3(G) can be almost entirely recovered from homology of two cell complexes with graph G as 1-skeleton:

Computing homology of those chain complexes is related to calculating homology H0, 2v-3A3(G) with coefficients in Z3 and Z [1/3] (this is localization on the multiplicative set generated by 3). Information we obtain in this way is not complete as we cannot distinguish Z3i- torsion for an arbitrary i. In some special cases we will be able to find this lacking piece of information by computing 3H0, 2v-3A3(G). In particular we proved that for complete graph Kn with n vertices, n ≥ 4:
H1, 2n-3A3(Kn) = Z2 + Z3n-1 + Z[(n(n-1)(2n-7))/6].
