The number of inner corners of the parallelogram polyomino associated with the Dyck path.

The number of internal nodes of a binary tree. That is, the total number of nodes of the tree minus [[St000203]]. A counting formula for the total number of internal nodes across all binary trees of size $n$ is given in [1]. This is equivalent to the number of internal triangles in all triangulations of an $(n+1)$-gon.

The number of ascents of a permutation.

The number of minimal elements in Bruhat order not less than the permutation. The minimal elements in question are biGrassmannian, that is $$1\dots r\ \ a+1\dots b\ \ r+1\dots a\ \ b+1\dots$$ for some $(r,a,b)$. This is also the size of Fulton's essential set of the reverse permutation, according to [ex.4.7, 2].

The number of exclusive left-to-right maxima of a permutation. This is the number of left-to-right maxima that are not right-to-left minima.

The number of descents of a permutation. This can be described as an occurrence of the vincular mesh pattern ([2,1], {(1,0),(1,1),(1,2)}), i.e., the middle column is shaded, see [3].

The number of descents of a standard tableau. Entry $i$ of a standard Young tableau is a descent if $i+1$ appears in a row below the row of $i$.

The lec statistic, the sum of the inversion numbers of the hook factors of a permutation. For a permutation $\sigma = p \tau_{1} \tau_{2} \cdots \tau_{k}$ in its hook factorization, [1] defines $$ \textrm{lec} \, \sigma = \sum_{1 \leq i \leq k} \textrm{inv} \, \tau_{i} \, ,$$ where $\textrm{inv} \, \tau_{i}$ is the number of inversions of $\tau_{i}$.

The number of exclusive right-to-left minima of a permutation. This is the number of right-to-left minima that are not left-to-right maxima. This is also the number of non weak exceedences of a permutation that are also not mid-points of a decreasing subsequence of length 3. Given a permutation $\pi = [\pi_1,\ldots,\pi_n]$, this statistic counts the number of position $j$ such that $\pi_j < j$ and there do not exist indices $i,k$ with $i < j < k$ and $\pi_i > \pi_j > \pi_k$. See also [[St000213]] and [[St000119]].

The staircase size of the code of a permutation. The code $c(\pi)$ of a permutation $\pi$ of length $n$ is given by the sequence $(c_1,\ldots,c_{n})$ with $c_i = |\{j > i : \pi(j) < \pi(i)\}|$. This is a bijection between permutations and all sequences $(c_1,\ldots,c_n)$ with $0 \leq c_i \leq n-i$. The staircase size of the code is the maximal $k$ such that there exists a subsequence $(c_{i_k},\ldots,c_{i_1})$ of $c(\pi)$ with $c_{i_j} \geq j$. This statistic is mapped through [[Mp00062]] to the number of descents, showing that together with the number of inversions [[St000018]] it is Euler-Mahonian.
