The number of maximally independent sets of vertices of a graph. An '''independent set''' of vertices of a graph is a set of vertices no two of which are adjacent. If a set of vertices is independent then so is every subset. This statistic counts the number of maximally independent sets of vertices.

The order of the largest clique of the graph. A clique in a graph $G$ is a subset $U \subseteq V(G)$ such that any pair of vertices in $U$ are adjacent. I.e. the subgraph induced by $U$ is a complete graph.

The chromatic number of a graph. The minimal number of colors needed to color the vertices of the graph such that no two vertices which share an edge have the same color.

The size of a partition. This statistic is the constant statistic of the level sets.

The number of independent sets of vertices of a graph. An independent set of vertices of a graph $G$ is a subset $U \subset V(G)$ such that no two vertices in $U$ are adjacent. This is also the number of vertex covers of $G$ as the map $U \mapsto V(G)\setminus U$ is a bijection between independent sets of vertices and vertex covers. The size of the largest independent set, also called independence number of $G$, is [[St000093]]

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 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.

The length of the partition.

The largest part of an integer partition.

The Grundy number of a graph. The Grundy number $\Gamma(G)$ is defined to be the largest $k$ such that $G$ admits a greedy $k$-coloring. Any order of the vertices of $G$ induces a greedy coloring by assigning to the $i$-th vertex in this order the smallest positive integer such that the partial coloring remains a proper coloring. In particular, we have that $\chi(G) \leq \Gamma(G) \leq \Delta(G) + 1$, where $\chi(G)$ is the chromatic number of $G$ ([[St000098]]), and where $\Delta(G)$ is the maximal degree of a vertex of $G$ ([[St000171]]).
