The number of regions of the inversion arrangement of a permutation. The inversion arrangement $\mathcal{A}_w$ consists of the hyperplanes $x_i-x_j=0$ such that $(i,j)$ is an inversion of $w$. Postnikov [4] conjectured that the number of regions in $\mathcal{A}_w$ equals the number of permutations in the interval $[id,w]$ in the strong Bruhat order if and only if $w$ avoids $4231$, $35142$, $42513$, $351624$. This conjecture was proved by Hultman-Linusson-Shareshian-Sjöstrand [1]. Oh-Postnikov-Yoo [3] showed that the number of regions of $\mathcal{A}_w$ is $|\chi_{G_w}(-1)|$ where $\chi_{G_w}$ is the chromatic polynomial of the inversion graph $G_w$. This is the graph with vertices ${1,2,\ldots,n}$ and edges $(i,j)$ for $i\lneq j$ $w_i\gneq w_j$. For a permutation $w=w_1\cdots w_n$, Lewis-Morales [2] and Hultman (see appendix in [2]) showed that this number equals the number of placements of $n$ non-attacking rooks on the south-west Rothe diagram of $w$.

The number of acyclic orientations of a graph.

The chromatic discriminant of a graph. The chromatic discriminant $\alpha(G)$ is the coefficient of the linear term of the chromatic polynomial $\chi(G,q)$. According to [1], it equals the cardinality of any of the following sets: (1) Acyclic orientations of G with unique sink at $q$, (2) Maximum $G$-parking functions relative to $q$, (3) Minimal $q$-critical states, (4) Spanning trees of G without broken circuits, (5) Conjugacy classes of Coxeter elements in the Coxeter group associated to $G$, (6) Multilinear Lyndon heaps on $G$. In addition, $\alpha(G)$ is also equal to the the dimension of the root space corresponding to the sum of all simple roots in the Kac-Moody Lie algebra associated to the graph.

The evaluation of the Tutte polynomial of the graph at (x,y) equal to (1,0).

The number of indecomposable modules with projective dimension 2 for Nakayama algebras with global dimension at most 2.

The second Elser number of a connected graph. For a connected graph $G$ the $k$-th Elser number is $$ els_k(G) = (-1)^{|V(G)|+1} \sum_N (-1)^{|E(N)|} |V(N)|^k $$ where the sum is over all nuclei of $G$, that is, the connected subgraphs of $G$ whose vertex set is a vertex cover of $G$. It is clear that this number is even. It was shown in [1] that it is non-negative.
