In [[logic]] and [[mathematics]], '''relation reduction''' and '''relational reducibility''' have to do with the extent to which a given [[relation (mathematics)|relation]] is determined by a set of other relations, called the ''relation dataset''.  The relation under examination is called the ''reductandum''.  The relation dataset typically consists of a specified relation over sets of relations, called the ''reducer'', the ''method of reduction'', or the ''relational step'', plus a set of other relations, called the ''reduciens'' or the ''relational base'',  each of which is properly simpler in a specified way than relation under examination.

A question of relation reduction or relational reducibility is sometimes posed as a question of '''relation reconstruction''' or '''relational reconstructibility''', since a useful way of stating the question is to ask whether the reductandum can be reconstructed from the reduciens.  See [[Humpty Dumpty]].
