Abstract
A jump system is a set of integer lattice points satisfying an exchange axiom. We discuss an operation on lattice points, called reduction, that preserves the jump system two-step axiom. We use reduction to prove a weakened version of a matroid conjecture by Rota[3], as well as demonstrate new operations on matroids and delta-matroids.
