What does Decimate modifier do in blender?
The Decimate modifier allows you to reduce the vertex/face count of a mesh with minimal shape changes. This is not usually used on meshes which have been created by modeling carefully and economically (where all vertices and faces are necessary to correctly define the shape).

Adding the Decimate Modifier

How does Decimate work?
Decimation reduces the original sampling rate for a sequence to a lower rate, the opposite of interpolation. The decimation process filters the input data with a lowpass filter and then resamples the resulting smoothed signal at a lower rate. y = decimate(x,r) reduces the sample rate of x by a factor r .
