The number of saliances of the permutation. A saliance is a right-to-left maximum. This can be described as an occurrence of the mesh pattern $([1], {(1,1)})$, i.e., the upper right quadrant is shaded, see [1].

The first entry of the permutation. This can be described as 1 plus the number of occurrences of the vincular pattern ([2,1], {(0,0),(0,1),(0,2)}), i.e., the first column is shaded, see [1]. This statistic is related to the number of deficiencies [[St000703]] as follows: consider the arc diagram of a permutation $\pi$ of $n$, together with its rotations, obtained by conjugating with the long cycle $(1,\dots,n)$. Drawing the labels $1$ to $n$ in this order on a circle, and the arcs $(i, \pi(i))$ as straight lines, the rotation of $\pi$ is obtained by replacing each number $i$ by $(i\bmod n) +1$. Then, $\pi(1)-1$ is the number of rotations of $\pi$ where the arc $(1, \pi(1))$ is a deficiency. In particular, if $O(\pi)$ is the orbit of rotations of $\pi$, then the number of deficiencies of $\pi$ equals $$ \frac{1}{|O(\pi)|}\sum_{\sigma\in O(\pi)} (\sigma(1)-1). $$

The number of runs in a permutation. A run in a permutation is an inclusion-wise maximal increasing substring, i.e., a contiguous subsequence. This is the same as the number of descents plus 1.

The size of the first part in the decomposition of a permutation. For a permutation $\pi$ of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$, this is defined to be the smallest $k > 0$ such that $\{\pi(1),\ldots,\pi(k)\} = \{1,\ldots,k\}$. This statistic is undefined for the empty permutation. For the number of parts in the decomposition see [[St000056]].

The number of left-to-right-minima of a permutation. An integer $\sigma_i$ in the one-line notation of a permutation $\sigma$ is a left-to-right-minimum if there does not exist a j < i such that $\sigma_j < \sigma_i$.

The number of longest increasing subsequences of a permutation.

The cardinality of the support of a permutation. A permutation $\sigma$ may be written as a product $\sigma = s_{i_1}\dots s_{i_k}$ with $k$ minimal, where $s_i = (i,i+1)$ denotes the simple transposition swapping the entries in positions $i$ and $i+1$. The set of indices $\{i_1,\dots,i_k\}$ is the '''support''' of $\sigma$ and independent of the chosen way to write $\sigma$ as such a product. See [2], Definition 1 and Proposition 10. The '''connectivity set''' of $\sigma$ of length $n$ is the set of indices $1 \leq i < n$ such that $\sigma(k) < i$ for all $k < i$. Thus, the connectivity set is the complement of the support.

The maximum drop size of a permutation. The maximum drop size of a permutation $\pi$ of $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots, n\}$ is defined to be the maximum value of $i-\pi(i)$.

Maximum difference of elements in cycles. Given a cycle $C$ in a permutation, we can compute the maximum distance between elements in the cycle, that is $\max \{ a_i-a_j | a_i, a_j \in C \}$. The statistic is then the maximum of this value over all cycles in the permutation.

The number of adjacencies of a permutation. An adjacency of a permutation $\pi$ is an index $i$ such that $\pi(i)-1 = \pi(i+1)$. Adjacencies are also known as ''small descents''. This can be also described as an occurrence of the bivincular pattern ([2,1], {((0,1),(1,0),(1,1),(1,2),(2,1)}), i.e., the middle row and the middle column are shaded, see [3].
