The number of valleys of a Dyck path not on the x-axis. That is, the number of valleys of nonminimal height. This corresponds to the number of -1's in an inclusion of Dyck paths into alternating sign matrices.

The number of mid points of decreasing subsequences of length 3 in a permutation. For a permutation $\pi$ of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$, this is the number of indices $j$ such that there exist indices $i,k$ with $i < j < k$ and $\pi(i) > \pi(j) > \pi(k)$. In other words, this is the number of indices that are neither left-to-right maxima nor right-to-left minima. This statistic can also be expressed as the number of occurrences of the mesh pattern ([3,2,1], {(0,2),(0,3),(2,0),(3,0)}): the shading fixes the first and the last element of the decreasing subsequence. See also [[St000119]].

The number of weak exceedences of a permutation that are also mid-points of a decreasing subsequence of length $3$. Given a permutation $\pi = [\pi_1,\ldots,\pi_n]$, this statistic counts the number of position $j$ such that $\pi_j \geq j$ and there exist indices $i,k$ with $i < j < k$ and $\pi_i > \pi_j > \pi_k$. See also [[St000213]] and [[St000119]].

The number of crossings of a permutation. A crossing of a permutation $\pi$ is given by a pair $(i,j)$ such that either $i < j \leq \pi(i) \leq \pi(j)$ or $\pi(i) < \pi(j) < i < j$. Pictorially, the diagram of a permutation is obtained by writing the numbers from $1$ to $n$ in this order on a line, and connecting $i$ and $\pi(i)$ with an arc above the line if $i\leq\pi(i)$ and with an arc below the line if $i > \pi(i)$. Then the number of crossings is the number of pairs of arcs above the line that cross or touch, plus the number of arcs below the line that cross.

The number of simple modules that appear as the top of an indecomposable non-projective modules that is reflexive in the corresponding Nakayama algebra. The top of a module is the cokernel of the inclusion of the radical of the module into the module. For Nakayama algebras with at most 8 simple modules, the statistic also coincides with the number of simple modules with projective dimension at least 3 in the corresponding Nakayama algebra.

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 distinct positions of the pattern letter 3 in occurrences of 132 in a permutation.

The number of distinct positions of the pattern letter 2 in occurrences of 213 in a permutation.

The number of entries equal to -1 in an alternating sign matrix. The number of nonzero entries, [[St000890]] is twice this number plus the dimension of the matrix.

The cycle descent number of a permutation. Let $(i_1,\ldots,i_k)$ be a cycle of a permutation $\pi$ such that $i_1$ is its smallest element. A **cycle descent** of $(i_1,\ldots,i_k)$ is an $i_a$ for $1 \leq a < k$ such that $i_a > i_{a+1}$. The **cycle descent set** of $\pi$ is then the set of descents in all the cycles of $\pi$, and the **cycle descent number** is its cardinality.
