Weakly well-designed SPARQL patterns is a recent generalisation of well-designed patterns, which preserve good computational properties but also capture almost all patterns that appear in practice. Subsumption is one of static analysis problems for SPARQL, along with equivalence and containment. In this paper we show that subsumption is undecidable for weakly well-designed patterns, which is in stark contrast to well-designed patterns, and to equivalence and containment.
