The number of strong covers of a core. A strong cover has a length of one more than the core being covered and contains the core that is being covered. The length of a $k$-core is the number of elements in that core which have a hook length of less than $k$. Alternatively the length of a core is the size of it's associated $k-1$-bounded partition.

The indicator function of whether a given perfect matching is an L & P matching. An L&P matching is built inductively as follows: starting with either a single edge, or a hairpin $([1,3],[2,4])$, insert a noncrossing matching or inflate an edge by a ladder, that is, a number of nested edges. The number of L&P matchings is (see [thm. 1, 2]) $$\frac{1}{2} \cdot 4^{n} + \frac{1}{n + 1}{2 \, n \choose n} - {2 \, n + 1 \choose n} + {2 \, n - 1 \choose n - 1}$$

The projective dimension of the simple module corresponding to the point in the poset of the symmetric group under bruhat order.

The number of minimal chains with small intervals between a binary word and the top element. A valley in a binary word is a subsequence $01$, or a trailing $0$. A peak is a subsequence $10$ or a trailing $1$. Let $P$ be the lattice on binary words of length $n$, where the covering elements of a word are obtained by replacing a valley with a peak. An interval $[w_1, w_2]$ in $P$ is small if $w_2$ is obtained from $w_1$ by replacing some valleys with peaks. This statistic counts the number of chains $w = w_1 < \dots < w_d = 1\dots 1$ to the top element of minimal length. For example, there are two such chains for the word $0110$: $$ 0110 < 1011 < 1101 < 1110 < 1111 $$ and $$ 0110 < 1010 < 1101 < 1110 < 1111. $$
