Classification conjecture for regular graphs of complexity less than one

Let GG be a connected regular graph, and let c(G)c(G) denote its complexity. Let C7C_7 be the cycle of length seven, and let Kn,nK_{n,n} and K2nK_{2n} denote the complete bipartite and complete graphs, respectively.

Regular-graph complexity conjecture. If c(G)<1c(G)<1, then GG is either isomorphic to C7C_7, or there is an integer n2n\geq2 such that GG is isomorphic to either Kn,nK_{n,n} or K2nK_{2n}.

The conjecture proposes that, apart from these specified cases, connected regular graphs have complexity at least one; the source gives no resolution status.
