The maximal difference between two elements in a common block.

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 maximal displacement of a permutation. This is $\max\{ |\pi(i)-i| \mid 1 \leq i \leq n\}$ for a permutation $\pi$ of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. This statistic without the absolute value is the maximal drop size [[St000141]].

The maximum drop size of a permutation. The maximum drop size of a permutation $\pi$ of $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots, n\}$ is defined to be the maximum value of $i-\pi(i)$.

The maximal area to the right of an up step of a Dyck path.

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 maximal arc length of a set partition. The arcs of a set partition are those $i < j$ that are consecutive elements in the blocks. If there are no arcs, the maximal arc length is $0$.

The height of a Dyck path. The height of a Dyck path $D$ of semilength $n$ is defined as the maximal height of a peak of $D$. The height of $D$ at position $i$ is the number of up-steps minus the number of down-steps before position $i$.

The largest eigenvalue of a graph if it is integral. If a graph is $d$-regular, then its largest eigenvalue equals $d$. One can show that the largest eigenvalue always lies between the average degree and the maximal degree. This statistic is undefined if the largest eigenvalue of the graph is not integral.

The hat guessing number of a graph. Suppose that each vertex of a graph corresponds to a player, wearing a hat whose color is arbitrarily chosen from a set of $q$ possible colors. Each player can see the hat colors of his neighbors, but not his own hat color. All of the players are asked to guess their own hat colors simultaneously, according to a predetermined guessing strategy and the hat colors they see, where no communication between them is allowed. The hat guessing number $HG(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the largest integer $q$ such that there exists a guessing strategy guaranteeing at least one correct guess for any hat assignment of $q$ possible colors. Because it suffices that a single player guesses correctly, the hat guessing number of a graph is the maximum of the hat guessing numbers of its connected components.
