The multiplicity of the largest distance Laplacian eigenvalue in a connected graph. The distance Laplacian of a graph is the (symmetric) matrix with row and column sums $0$, which has the negative distances between two vertices as its off-diagonal entries. This statistic is the largest multiplicity of an eigenvalue. For example, the cycle on four vertices has distance Laplacian $$ \left(\begin{array}{rrrr} 4 & -1 & -2 & -1 \\ -1 & 4 & -1 & -2 \\ -2 & -1 & 4 & -1 \\ -1 & -2 & -1 & 4 \end{array}\right). $$ Its eigenvalues are $0,4,4,6$, so the statistic is $1$. The path on four vertices has eigenvalues $0, 4.7\dots, 6, 9.2\dots$ and therefore also statistic $1$. The graphs with statistic $n-1$, $n-2$ and $n-3$ have been characterised, see [1].

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 monochromatic index of a connected graph. This is the maximal number of colours such that there is a colouring of the edges where any two vertices can be joined by a monochromatic path. For example, a circle graph other than the triangle can be coloured with at most two colours: one edge blue, all the others red.

The second Elser number of a connected graph. For a connected graph $G$ the $k$-th Elser number is $$ els_k(G) = (-1)^{|V(G)|+1} \sum_N (-1)^{|E(N)|} |V(N)|^k $$ where the sum is over all nuclei of $G$, that is, the connected subgraphs of $G$ whose vertex set is a vertex cover of $G$. It is clear that this number is even. It was shown in [1] that it is non-negative.

The number of connected components of the quiver of $A/T$ when $T$ is the 1-tilting module corresponding to the permutation in the Auslander algebra $A$ of $K[x]/(x^n)$.
