The number of occurrences of the arrow pattern 1-2 with an arrow from 1 to 2 in a permutation. Let $\nu$ be a (partial) permutation of $[k]$ with $m$ letters together with dashes between some of its letters. An occurrence of $\nu$ in a permutation $\tau$ is a subsequence $\tau_{a_1},\dots,\tau_{a_m}$ such that $a_i + 1 = a_{i+1}$ whenever there is a dash between the $i$-th and the $(i+1)$-st letter of $\nu$, which is order isomorphic to $\nu$. Thus, $\nu$ is a vincular pattern, except that it is not required to be a permutation. An arrow pattern of size $k$ consists of such a generalized vincular pattern $\nu$ and arrows $b_1\to c_1, b_2\to c_2,\dots$, such that precisely the numbers $1,\dots,k$ appear in the vincular pattern and the arrows. Let $\Phi$ be the map [[Mp00087]]. Let $\tau$ be a permutation and $\sigma = \Phi(\tau)$. Then a subsequence $w = (x_{a_1},\dots,x_{a_m})$ of $\tau$ is an occurrence of the arrow pattern if $w$ is an occurrence of $\nu$, for each arrow $b\to c$ we have $\sigma(x_b) = x_c$ and $x_1 < x_2 < \dots < x_k$.

The number of parts from which one can substract 2 and still get an integer partition.

The number of simple modules in the corresponding LNakayama algebra that have 2 dimensional second Extension group with the regular module.

The number of triconnected components of a graph. A connected graph is '''triconnected''' or '''3-vertex connected''' if it cannot be disconnected by removing two or fewer vertices. An arbitrary connected graph can be decomposed as a union of biconnected (2-vertex connected) graphs, known as '''blocks''', and each biconnected graph can be decomposed as a union of components with are either a cycle (type "S"), a cocyle (type "P"), or triconnected (type "R"). The decomposition of a biconnected graph into these components is known as the '''SPQR-tree''' of the graph.

The maximal dimension of $Ext_A^2(S,A)$ for a simple module $S$ over the corresponding Nakayama algebra $A$.

The largest distance of a vertex to a vertex in a cycle in the resolution quiver of the corresponding Nakayama algebra.

The indicator function of whether a given perfect matching is an L & P matching. An L&P matching is built inductively as follows: starting with either a single edge, or a hairpin $([1,3],[2,4])$, insert a noncrossing matching or inflate an edge by a ladder, that is, a number of nested edges. The number of L&P matchings is (see [thm. 1, 2]) $$\frac{1}{2} \cdot 4^{n} + \frac{1}{n + 1}{2 \, n \choose n} - {2 \, n + 1 \choose n} + {2 \, n - 1 \choose n - 1}$$
