Title: 2-Y-homogeneous distance-biregular graphs

Abstract: Distance-biregular graphs (DBRGs) generalize distance-regular graphs by admitting a bipartition of the vertex set, where each part satisfies local distance-regularity  under distinct intersection arrays. In recent years, a particular subclass of these graphs, those satisfying the so-called 2-Y-homogeneous condition, has garnered increasing attention due to its rich connections with combinatorial design theory and the representation theory of Terwilliger algebras. In this talk, we will examine the key structural conditions that characterize 2-Y-homogeneous DBRGs. We will survey recent progress in their classification under various combinatorial constraints, highlighting both known results and open problems.
