Property graphs often contain tree-shaped substructures, yet they are not captured by existing proposals for graph schemas; likewise, query languages and query engines offer little-to-no native support for managing them systematically. As a…

The integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) with Knowledge Graphs (KGs) offers significant synergistic potential for knowledge-driven applications. One possible integration is the interpretation and generation of formal languages, such…
