The number of coarsenings of a partition. A partition $\mu$ coarsens a partition $\lambda$ if the parts of $\mu$ can be subdivided to obtain the parts of $\lambda$.

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.

The number of lower covers of a partition in dominance order. According to [1], Corollary 2.4, the maximum number of elements one element (apparently for $n\neq 2$) can cover is $$ \frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{1+8n}-3) $$ and an element which covers this number of elements is given by $(c+i,c,c-1,\dots,3,2,1)$, where $1\leq i\leq c+2$.

The number of upper covers of a partition in dominance order.

The number of distinct even parts of a partition. See Section 3.3.1 of [1].

The number of real roots of the characteristic polynomial of a linear recurrence associated with an integer partition. Consider the recurrence $$f(n)=\sum_{p\in\lambda} f(n-p).$$ This statistic returns the number of distinct real roots of the associated characteristic polynomial. For example, the partition $(2,1)$ corresponds to the recurrence $f(n)=f(n-1)+f(n-2)$ with associated characteristic polynomial $x^2-x-1$, which has two real roots.

The spin of an integer partition. The Ferrers shape of an integer partition $\lambda$ can be decomposed into border strips. The spin is then defined to be the total number of crossings of border strips of $\lambda$ with the vertical lines in the Ferrers shape. The following example is taken from Appendix B in [1]: Let $\lambda = (5,5,4,4,2,1)$. Removing the border strips successively yields the sequence of partitions $$(5,5,4,4,2,1), (4,3,3,1), (2,2), (1), ().$$ The first strip $(5,5,4,4,2,1) \setminus (4,3,3,1)$ crosses $4$ times, the second strip $(4,3,3,1) \setminus (2,2)$ crosses $3$ times, the strip $(2,2) \setminus (1)$ crosses $1$ time, and the remaining strip $(1) \setminus ()$ does not cross. This yields the spin of $(5,5,4,4,2,1)$ to be $4+3+1 = 8$.

The dinv adjustment of an integer partition. The Ferrers shape of an integer partition $\lambda = (\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_k)$ can be decomposed into border strips. For $0 \leq j < \lambda_1$ let $n_j$ be the length of the border strip starting at $(\lambda_1-j,0)$. The dinv adjustment is then defined by $$\sum_{j:n_j > 0}(\lambda_1-1-j).$$ The following example is taken from Appendix B in [2]: Let $\lambda=(5,5,4,4,2,1)$. Removing the border strips successively yields the sequence of partitions $$(5,5,4,4,2,1),(4,3,3,1),(2,2),(1),(),$$ and we obtain $(n_0,\ldots,n_4) = (10,7,0,3,1)$. The dinv adjustment is thus $4+3+1+0 = 8$.

The number of parts of an integer partition that are at least two.
