The cubical dimension of a graph G is the smallest dimension of a hypercube into which G is embeddable as a subgraph. The conjecture of Havel (1984) claims that the cubical dimension of every balanced binary tree with 2 ⁿ vertices, n ⩾ 1, is n. The 2-rooted complete binary tree of depth n is obtained from two copies of the complete binary tree of depth n by adding an edge linking their respective roots. In this paper, we determine the cubical dimension of trees obtained by subdividing twice a 2-rooted complete binary tree and prove that every such balanced tree satisfies the conjecture of Havel.
