Graph Pattern Matching in GQL and SQL/PGQ

Summary: GPML: shared graph pattern-matching sub-language underpinning both GQL and SQL/PGQ. WG3 and LDBC analyze the standardization design process and present the key GPML elements plus a path to formal semantics ahead of publication. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
