The minimal order of a graph which is not an induced subgraph of the given graph. For example, the graph with two isolated vertices is not an induced subgraph of the complete graph on three vertices. By contrast, the minimal number of vertices of a graph which is not a subgraph of a graph is one plus the clique number [[St000097]].

The lettericity of a graph. Let $D$ be a digraph on $k$ vertices, possibly with loops and let $w$ be a word of length $n$ whose letters are vertices of $D$. The letter graph corresponding to $D$ and $w$ is the graph with vertex set $\{1,\dots,n\}$ whose edges are the pairs $(i,j)$ with $i < j$ sucht that $(w_i, w_j)$ is a (directed) edge of $D$.

The minimum of the number of parts and the size of the first part of an integer partition. This is also an upper bound on the maximal number of non-attacking rooks that can be placed on the Ferrers board.

The side length of the largest staircase partition fitting into a partition. For an integer partition $(\lambda_1\geq \lambda_2\geq\dots)$ this is the largest integer $k$ such that $\lambda_i > k-i$ for $i\in\{1,\dots,k\}$. In other words, this is the length of a longest (strict) north-east chain of cells in the Ferrers diagram of the partition, using the English convention. Equivalently, this is the maximal number of non-attacking rooks that can be placed on the Ferrers diagram. This is also the maximal number of occurrences of a colour in a proper colouring of a Ferrers diagram. A colouring of a Ferrers diagram is proper if no two cells in a row or in a column have the same colour. The minimal number of colours needed is the maximum of the length and the first part of the partition, because we can restrict a latin square to the shape. We can associate to each colouring the integer partition recording how often each colour is used, see [1]. This statistic records the largest part occurring in any of these partitions.

The order dimension of the partition. Given a partition $\lambda$, let $I(\lambda)$ be the principal order ideal in the Young lattice generated by $\lambda$. The order dimension of a partition is defined as the order dimension of the poset $I(\lambda)$.

The arboricity of a graph. This is the minimum number of forests that covers all edges of the graph.

The number of upper interactions of a Dyck path. An ''upper interaction'' in a Dyck path is defined as the occurrence of a factor '''$A^{k}$$B^{k}$''' for any '''${k ≥ 1}$''', where '''${A}$''' is a down-step and '''${B}$''' is a up-step.

The number of runs of ones in a binary word.

The length of the longest staircase fitting into an integer composition. For a given composition $c_1,\dots,c_n$, this is the maximal number $\ell$ such that there are indices $i_1 < \dots < i_\ell$ with $c_{i_k} \geq k$, see [def.3.1, 1]

The length of the longest strictly decreasing subsequence of parts of an integer composition. By the Greene-Kleitman theorem, regarding the composition as a word, this is the length of the partition associated by the Robinson-Schensted-Knuth correspondence.
