I'm trying to understand the relationship between dividends and NAV. Specifically, I want to know if dividends have an impact on reducing the Net Asset Value of a fund or an investment portfolio.

The payment of a dividend can lead to a decrease in the net asset value (NAV) of a fund.

This decline happens because the value of the fund is reduced when a dividend is paid out to investors.

Such a drop in NAV is a normal and expected consequence of dividend payments.
