Abstract
we give an equational definition for relations over trees, show that they can be described by rational expressions and give sufficient restrictions on the generated relations to ensure the rationality of their domain and range, and their stability under inverse, composition and substitution. We get in this way “rational tree transductions” extending to the case of trees the well known rational transductions over words.
