Number of simple modules with projective dimension at most 2 in the Nakayama algebra corresponding to the Dyck path.

The number of odd rises of a Dyck path. This is the number of ones at an odd position, with the initial position equal to 1. The number of Dyck paths of semilength $n$ with $k$ up steps in odd positions and $k$ returns to the main diagonal are counted by the binomial coefficient $\binom{n-1}{k-1}$ [3,4].

The number of external nodes of a binary tree. That is, the number of nodes that can be reached from the root by only left steps or only right steps, plus $1$ for the root node itself. A counting formula for the number of external node in all binary trees of size $n$ can be found in [1].

The number of cycles in the cycle decomposition of a permutation.

The decomposition (or block) number of a permutation. For $\pi \in \mathcal{S}_n$, this is given by $$\#\big\{ 1 \leq k \leq n : \{\pi_1,\ldots,\pi_k\} = \{1,\ldots,k\} \big\}.$$ This is also known as the number of connected components [1] or the number of blocks [2] of the permutation, considering it as a direct sum. This is one plus [[St000234]].

The number of weak exceedances (also weak excedences) of a permutation. This is defined as $$\operatorname{wex}(\sigma)=\#\{i:\sigma(i) \geq i\}.$$ The number of weak exceedances is given by the number of exceedances (see [[St000155]]) plus the number of fixed points (see [[St000022]]) of $\sigma$.

The number of left-to-right-maxima of a permutation. An integer $\sigma_i$ in the one-line notation of a permutation $\sigma$ is a '''left-to-right-maximum''' if there does not exist a $j < i$ such that $\sigma_j > \sigma_i$. This is also the number of weak exceedences of a permutation that are not mid-points of a decreasing subsequence of length 3, see [1] for more on the later description.

The number of topologically connected components of the chord diagram of a permutation. The chord diagram of a permutation $\pi\in\mathfrak S_n$ is obtained by placing labels $1,\dots,n$ in cyclic order on a cycle and drawing a (straight) arc from $i$ to $\pi(i)$ for every label $i$. This statistic records the number of topologically connected components in the chord diagram. In particular, if two arcs cross, all four labels connected by the two arcs are in the same component. The permutation $\pi\in\mathfrak S_n$ stabilizes an interval $I=\{a,a+1,\dots,b\}$ if $\pi(I)=I$. It is stabilized-interval-free, if the only interval $\pi$ stablizes is $\{1,\dots,n\}$. Thus, this statistic is $1$ if $\pi$ is stabilized-interval-free.

The number of global ascents of a permutation. The global ascents are the integers $i$ such that $$C(\pi)=\{i\in [n-1] \mid \forall 1 \leq j \leq i < k \leq n: \pi(j) < \pi(k)\}.$$ Equivalently, by the pigeonhole principle, $$C(\pi)=\{i\in [n-1] \mid \forall 1 \leq j \leq i: \pi(j) \leq i \}.$$ For $n > 1$ it can also be described as an occurrence of the mesh pattern $$([1,2], \{(0,2),(1,0),(1,1),(2,0),(2,1) \})$$ or equivalently $$([1,2], \{(0,1),(0,2),(1,1),(1,2),(2,0) \}),$$ see [3]. According to [2], this is also the cardinality of the connectivity set of a permutation. The permutation is connected, when the connectivity set is empty. This gives [[oeis:A003319]].

The hull number of a graph. The convex hull of a set of vertices $S$ of a graph is the smallest set $h(S)$ such that for any pair $u,v\in h(S)$ all vertices on a shortest path from $u$ to $v$ are also in $h(S)$. The hull number is the size of the smallest set $S$ such that $h(S)$ is the set of all vertices.
