The number of 1-protected nodes of a rooted tree. This is the number of nodes with minimal distance one to a leaf.

The cutwidth of a graph. This is the minimum possible width of a linear ordering of its vertices, where the width of an ordering $\sigma$ is the maximum, among all the prefixes of $\sigma$, of the number of edges that have exactly one vertex in a prefix.

The bandwidth of a graph. The bandwidth of a graph is the smallest number $k$ such that the vertices of the graph can be ordered as $v_1,\dots,v_n$ with $k \cdot d(v_i,v_j) \geq |i-j|$. We adopt the convention that the singleton graph has bandwidth $0$, consistent with the bandwith of the complete graph on $n$ vertices having bandwidth $n-1$, but in contrast to any path graph on more than one vertex having bandwidth $1$. The bandwidth of a disconnected graph is the maximum of the bandwidths of the connected components.

The dimension of a graph. The dimension of a graph is the least integer $n$ such that there exists a representation of the graph in the Euclidean space of dimension $n$ with all vertices distinct and all edges having unit length. Edges are allowed to intersect, however.

The proper pathwidth of a graph. The proper pathwidth $\operatorname{ppw}(G)$ was introduced in [1] as the minimum width of a proper-path-decomposition. Barioli et al. [2] showed that if $G$ has at least one edge, then $\operatorname{ppw}(G)$ is the minimum $k$ for which $G$ is a minor of the Cartesian product $K_k \square P$ of a complete graph on $k$ vertices with a path; and further that $\operatorname{ppw}(G)$ is the minor monotone floor $\lfloor \operatorname{Z} \rfloor(G) := \min\{\operatorname{Z}(H) \mid G \preceq H\}$ of the [[St000482|zero forcing number]] $\operatorname{Z}(G)$. It can be shown [3, Corollary 9.130] that only the spanning supergraphs need to be considered for $H$ in this definition, i.e. $\lfloor \operatorname{Z} \rfloor(G) = \min\{\operatorname{Z}(H) \mid G \le H,\; V(H) = V(G)\}$. The minimum degree $\delta$, treewidth $\operatorname{tw}$, and pathwidth $\operatorname{pw}$ satisfy $$\delta \le \operatorname{tw} \le \operatorname{pw} \le \operatorname{ppw} = \lfloor \operatorname{Z} \rfloor \le \operatorname{pw} + 1.$$ Note that [4] uses a different notion of proper pathwidth, which is equal to bandwidth.

The book thickness of a graph. The book thickness (or pagenumber, or stacknumber) of a graph is the minimal number of pages required for a book embedding of a graph.

The number of outer peaks of a permutation. An outer peak in a permutation $w = [w_1,..., w_n]$ is either a position $i$ such that $w_{i-1} < w_i > w_{i+1}$ or $1$ if $w_1 > w_2$ or $n$ if $w_{n} > w_{n-1}$. In other words, it is a peak in the word $[0,w_1,..., w_n,0]$.

The number of valleys of a permutation, including the boundary. The number of valleys excluding the boundary is [[St000353]].

The number of cyclic valleys and cyclic peaks of a permutation. This is given by the number of indices $i$ such that $\pi_{i-1} > \pi_i < \pi_{i+1}$ with indices considered cyclically. Equivalently, this is the number of indices $i$ such that $\pi_{i-1} < \pi_i > \pi_{i+1}$ with indices considered cyclically.

The number of parts of the shifted shape of a permutation. The diagram of a strict partition $\lambda_1 < \lambda_2 < \dots < \lambda_\ell$ of $n$ is a tableau with $\ell$ rows, the $i$-th row being indented by $i$ cells. A shifted standard Young tableau is a filling of such a diagram, where entries in rows and columns are strictly increasing. The shifted Robinson-Schensted algorithm [1] associates to a permutation a pair $(P, Q)$ of standard shifted Young tableaux of the same shape, where off-diagonal entries in $Q$ may be circled. This statistic records the number of parts of the shifted shape.
