The lcb statistic of a set partition. Let $S = B_1,\ldots,B_k$ be a set partition with ordered blocks $B_i$ and with $\operatorname{min} B_a < \operatorname{min} B_b$ for $a < b$. According to [1, Definition 3], a '''lcb''' (left-closer-bigger) of $S$ is given by a pair $i < j$ such that $j = \operatorname{max} B_b$ and $i \in B_a$ for $a > b$.

The number of inversions of a set partition. Let $S = B_1,\ldots,B_k$ be a set partition with ordered blocks $B_i$ and with $\operatorname{min} B_a < \operatorname{min} B_b$ for $a < b$. According to [1], see also [2,3], an inversion of $S$ is given by a pair $i > j$ such that $j = \operatorname{min} B_b$ and $i \in B_a$ for $a < b$. This statistic is called '''ros''' in [1, Definition 3] for "right, opener, smaller". This is also the number of occurrences of the pattern {{1, 3}, {2}} such that 1 and 2 are minimal elements of blocks.

The number of occurrences of the pattern {{1},{2,3}} such that 1,2 are minimal.

The number of invisible inversions of a permutation. A visible inversion of a permutation $\pi$ is a pair $i < j$ such that $\pi(j) \leq \min(i, \pi(i))$. Thus, an invisible inversion satisfies $\pi(i) > \pi(j) > i$.

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 number of rowmotion orbits of a poset. Rowmotion is an operation on order ideals in a poset $P$. It sends an order ideal $I$ to the order ideal generated by the minimal antichain of $P \setminus I$.

The number of indecomposable injective modules $I$ with $dim Ext^1(I,A)=1$ for the incidence algebra A of a poset.
