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 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 cardinality of a maximal independent set of vertices of a graph. An independent set of a graph is a set of pairwise non-adjacent vertices. A maximum independent set is an independent set of maximum cardinality. This statistic is also called the independence number or stability number $\alpha(G)$ of $G$.

The maximal number of occurrences of a colour in a proper colouring of a graph. To any proper colouring with the minimal number of colours possible we associate the integer partition recording how often each colour is used. This statistic records the largest part occurring in any of these partitions. For example, the graph on six vertices consisting of a square together with two attached triangles - ([(0,4),(0,5),(1,3),(1,5),(2,3),(2,4),(3,5),(4,5)],6) in the list of values - is three-colourable and admits two colouring schemes, $[2,2,2]$ and $[3,2,1]$. Therefore, the statistic on this graph is $3$.

The domatic number of a graph. This is the maximal size of a partition of the vertices into dominating sets.

The upper domination number of a graph. This is the maximum cardinality of a minimal dominating set of $G$. The smallest graph with different upper irredundance number and upper domination number has eight vertices. It is obtained from the disjoint union of two copies of $K_4$ by joining three of the four vertices of the first with three of the four vertices of the second. For bipartite graphs the two parameters always coincide [1].

The upper irredundance number of a graph. A set $S$ of vertices is irredundant, if there is no vertex in $S$, whose closed neighbourhood is contained in the union of the closed neighbourhoods of the other vertices of $S$. The upper irredundance number is the largest size of a maximal irredundant set. The smallest graph with different upper irredundance number and upper domination number [[St001337]] has eight vertices. It is obtained from the disjoint union of two copies of $K_4$ by joining three of the four vertices of the first with three of the four vertices of the second. For bipartite graphs the two parameters always coincide [2].

The monophonic hull number of a graph. The monophonic hull of a set of vertices $M$ of a graph $G$ is the set of vertices that lie on at least one induced path between vertices in $M$. The monophonic hull number is the size of the smallest set $M$ such that the monophonic hull of $M$ is all of $G$. For example, the monophonic hull number of a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices is $n$ if and only if $G$ is a disjoint union of complete graphs.

The monophonic position number of a graph. A subset $M$ of the vertex set of a graph is a monophonic position set if no three vertices of $M$ lie on a common induced path. The monophonic position number is the size of a largest monophonic position set.

The domination number of a graph. The domination number of a graph is given by the minimum size of a dominating set of vertices. A dominating set of vertices is a subset of the vertex set of such that every vertex is either in this subset or adjacent to an element of this subset.
