Okay, so you know how to use built-in inferences and/or create custom inference rules using Virtuoso. Thus, if your data contains rdfs:subClassOf relations and you want to use property paths as per "*" operator, what's the problem? Remember I stated: sparql prefix : <http://test.abc#> prefix rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns# <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#>> prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema# <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>> prefix owl: <http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl# <http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#>> insert IN GRAPH <urn:test1> { :class1 a owl:Class . :class2 a owl:Class . ## Note relation added here ## :class2 rdfs:subClassOf :class1 . :entity0 a :class1. :entity1 a :class2. :entity2 a :class2. :entity0 :relation1 :entity1. :entity0 :relation1 :entity2. } Which implies the fact that :entity1 rdfs:subClassOf :entity0 isn't explicitly stated in the data, unless you have some other named graph holding those relations, hence the need for reasoning and inference. If the relations are in place, you can use property paths. If not, you need to materialize them by way of reasoning and inference. -- Regards, Kingsley Idehen Founder & CEO OpenLink Software (Home Page: http://www.openlinksw.com) Weblogs (Blogs): Legacy Blog: http://www.openlinksw.com/blog/~kidehen/ Blogspot Blog: http://kidehen.blogspot.com Medium Blog: https://medium.com/@kidehen Profile Pages: Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/kidehen/ Quora: https://www.quora.com/profile/Kingsley-Uyi-Idehen Twitter: https://twitter.com/kidehen Google+: https://plus.google.com/+KingsleyIdehen/about LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/kidehen Web Identities (WebID): Personal: http://kingsley.idehen.net/public_home/kidehen/profile.ttl#i : http://id.myopenlink.net/DAV/home/KingsleyUyiIdehen/Public/kingsley.ttl#this
