The Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of a permutation. The ''Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity'' of a permutation $\sigma$ is the ''Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity'' of the ''matrix Schubert variety'' $X_\sigma$. Equivalently, it is the difference between the degrees of the ''Grothendieck polynomial'' and the ''Schubert polynomial'' for $\sigma$. It can be computed by subtracting the ''Coxeter length'' [[St000018]] from the ''Rajchgot index'' [[St001759]].

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]) $$\frac{1}{2} \cdot 4^{n} + \frac{1}{n + 1}{2 \, n \choose n} - {2 \, n + 1 \choose n} + {2 \, n - 1 \choose n - 1}$$

The number of minimal chains with small intervals between a binary word and the top element. A valley in a binary word is a subsequence $01$, or a trailing $0$. A peak is a subsequence $10$ or a trailing $1$. Let $P$ be the lattice on binary words of length $n$, where the covering elements of a word are obtained by replacing a valley with a peak. An interval $[w_1, w_2]$ in $P$ is small if $w_2$ is obtained from $w_1$ by replacing some valleys with peaks. This statistic counts the number of chains $w = w_1 < \dots < w_d = 1\dots 1$ to the top element of minimal length. For example, there are two such chains for the word $0110$: $$ 0110 < 1011 < 1101 < 1110 < 1111 $$ and $$ 0110 < 1010 < 1101 < 1110 < 1111. $$

The projective dimension of the simple module corresponding to the point in the poset of the symmetric group under bruhat order.

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 number of 2-regular simple modules in the incidence algebra of the lattice.
