Abstract

Regular path queries (RPQs) are a fundamental part of recent graph query languages like SPARQL and PGQL. They allow the definition of recursive path structures through regular expressions in a declarative pattern matching environment. We study the use of the K2-tree graph compression technique to materialize RPQ results with low memory consumption for indexing. Compact index representations enable the efficient storage of multiple indexes for varying RPQs.
