The largest opener of a set partition. An opener (or left hand endpoint) of a set partition is a number that is minimal in its block. For this statistic, singletons are considered as openers.

The cardinality of the support of a permutation. A permutation $\sigma$ may be written as a product $\sigma = s_{i_1}\dots s_{i_k}$ with $k$ minimal, where $s_i = (i,i+1)$ denotes the simple transposition swapping the entries in positions $i$ and $i+1$. The set of indices $\{i_1,\dots,i_k\}$ is the '''support''' of $\sigma$ and independent of the chosen way to write $\sigma$ as such a product. See [2], Definition 1 and Proposition 10. The '''connectivity set''' of $\sigma$ of length $n$ is the set of indices $1 \leq i < n$ such that $\sigma(k) < i$ for all $k < i$. Thus, the connectivity set is the complement of the support.

The depth of a permutation. This is given by $$\operatorname{dp}(\sigma) = \sum_{\sigma_i>i} (\sigma_i-i) = |\{ i \leq j : \sigma_i > j\}|.$$ The depth is half of the total displacement [4], Problem 5.1.1.28, or Spearman’s disarray [3] $\sum_i |\sigma_i-i|$. Permutations with depth at most $1$ are called ''almost-increasing'' in [5].

The sum of the descent differences of a permutations. This statistic is given by $$\pi \mapsto \sum_{i\in\operatorname{Des}(\pi)} (\pi_i-\pi_{i+1}).$$ See [[St000111]] and [[St000154]] for the sum of the descent tops and the descent bottoms, respectively. This statistic was studied in [1] and [2] where is was called the ''drop'' of a permutation.

Maximum difference of elements in cycles. Given a cycle $C$ in a permutation, we can compute the maximum distance between elements in the cycle, that is $\max \{ a_i-a_j | a_i, a_j \in C \}$. The statistic is then the maximum of this value over all cycles in the permutation.

The sorting index of a permutation. The sorting index counts the total distance that symbols move during a selection sort of a permutation. This sorting algorithm swaps symbol n into index n and then recursively sorts the first n-1 symbols. Compare this to [[St000018]], the number of inversions of a permutation, which is also the total distance that elements move during a bubble sort.

The maximal size of a rise in a permutation. This is $\max_i \sigma_{i+1}-\sigma_i$, except for the permutations without rises, where it is $0$.

The aid statistic in the sense of Shareshian-Wachs. This is the number of admissible inversions [[St000866]] plus the number of descents [[St000021]]. This statistic was introduced by John Shareshian and Michelle L. Wachs in [1]. Theorem 4.1 states that the aid statistic together with the descent statistic is Euler-Mahonian.

The number of visible inversions of a permutation. A visible inversion of a permutation $\pi$ is a pair $i < j$ such that $\pi(j) \leq \min(i, \pi(i))$.

The number of indices that are not small excedances. A small excedance is an index $i$ for which $\pi_i = i+1$.
