Polynomial-time complexity of distance-dd independent set reconfiguration on trees under token sliding

Let d3d\geq 3. In distance-dd independent set reconfiguration, denoted by \textscDd\textscISR\textsc{D}d\textsc{ISR}, configurations are distance-dd independent sets, and under the token-sliding rule, denoted by \sfTS\sfTS, one token may slide along an edge in each move. The input graph is a tree. Polynomial-time reconfiguration conjecture. \textscDd\textscISR\textsc{D}d\textsc{ISR} under \sfTS\sfTS on trees is in \ttP\ttP for d3d\geq 3. The complexity of this problem is stated in the source to remain unknown, so this is an open problem concerning reconfiguration on trees.
