Jin–Tan conjecture on connected two-distance transitive dihedrants

A dihedrant is a Cayley graph on a dihedral group. A graph is 2-distance transitive if its automorphism group is transitive on ordered pairs of vertices at each of the distances one and two. Let Km[b]\mathsf{K}_{m[b]} denote the complete multipartite graph with mm parts of size bb, and let G(2,p,(p1)/4)\mathrm{G}(2,p,(p-1)/4) denote the corresponding graph in the stated dihedrant family.

Jin–Tan's conjecture. Every connected 22-distance transitive dihedrant either is a known 22-arc transitive dihedrant, is isomorphic to Km[b]\mathsf{K}_{m[b]} for some m3m\geq 3 and b2b\geq 2, or is isomorphic to G(2,p,(p1)/4)\mathrm{G}(2,p,(p-1)/4) for a prime pp satisfying p1(mod8)p\equiv 1\pmod{8}.

This conjecture seeks a classification of connected two-distance transitive Cayley graphs on dihedral groups, extending known classifications of two-arc transitive dihedrants and related symmetric graph families. The supplied text does not establish whether the conjecture has been resolved.
