Modern property graph database query languages such as Cypher, PGQL, GSQL, and the standard GQL draw inspiration from the formalism of regular path queries (RPQs). In order to output walks explicitly, they depart from the classical and…

For decades, SQL has been the default language for composing queries, but it is increasingly used as an artifact to be read and verified rather than authored. With Large Language Models (LLMs), queries are increasingly machine-generated,…

Two-way regular path queries (2-RPQs) allow one to use regular languages over edges and inverted edges in edge-labelled graph to constrain paths of interest. 2-RPQs are (partially) adopted in different real-world graph analysis systems and…
