The maximal part of the shifted composition of an integer partition. A partition $\lambda = (\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_k)$ is shifted into a composition by adding $i-1$ to the $i$-th part. The statistic is then $\operatorname{max}_i\{ \lambda_i + i - 1 \}$. See also [[St000380]].

The position of the first return of a Dyck path.

The position of the first one in a binary word after appending a 1 at the end. Regarding the binary word as a subset of $\{1,\dots,n,n+1\}$ that contains $n+1$, this is the minimal element of the set.

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 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 depth of the binary word interpreted as a path. This is the maximal value of the number of zeros minus the number of ones occurring in a prefix of the binary word, see [1, sec.9.1.2]. The number of binary words of length $n$ with depth $k$ is $\binom{n}{\lfloor\frac{(n+1) - (-1)^{n-k}(k+1)}{2}\rfloor}$, see [2].

The number of positive eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix of the graph. This is the number of vertices minus the number of connected components of the graph.

The height of a Dyck path. The height of a Dyck path $D$ of semilength $n$ is defined as the maximal height of a peak of $D$. The height of $D$ at position $i$ is the number of up-steps minus the number of down-steps before position $i$.

The number of initial rises of a Dyck path. In other words, this is the height of the first peak of $D$.

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 $$ \frac{1}{|O(\pi)|}\sum_{\sigma\in O(\pi)} (\sigma(1)-1). $$
