I am studying now the article of V. O. Manturov about free knots ("Free Knots and Parity", https://arxiv.org/pdf/0912.5348.pdf). I got stuck on the section "Parity as homology" (p.6), at the homology group $H_1(Gamma,mathbbZ_2)$. I don't know how, is it defined? Thought first that this is simply the homology of the graph understood as a 1-dimensional CW-complex. With this definition, I don't know, however, how to interpret this sentence:




"The homology group $H_1(Gamma,mathbbZ_2)$ is generated by
"halves" corresponding to vertices: for every vertex $v$ we have two
halves of the graph $Gamma_v,1$ and $Gamma_v,2$, obtained by
smoothing at this vertex".
