The size of a partition. This statistic is the constant statistic of the level sets.

The smallest label of a leaf of the increasing binary tree associated to a permutation.

The number of vertices with out-degree 1 in a binary tree. See the references for several connections of this statistic. In particular, the number $T(n,k)$ of binary trees with $n$ vertices and $k$ out-degree $1$ vertices is given by $T(n,k) = 0$ for $n-k$ odd and $$T(n,k)=\frac{2^k}{n+1}\binom{n+1}{k}\binom{n+1-k}{(n-k)/2}$$ for $n-k$ is even.

The number of strictly increasing runs in a binary word.

The binary logarithm of the number of binary trees with the same underlying unordered tree.

The label of the leaf of the path following the smaller label in the increasing binary tree associated to a permutation. Associate an increasing binary tree to the permutation using [[Mp00061]]. Then follow the path starting at the root which always selects the child with the smaller label. This statistic is the label of the leaf in the path, see [1]. Han [2] showed that this statistic is (up to a shift) equidistributed on zigzag permutations (permutations $\pi$ such that $\pi(1) < \pi(2) > \pi(3) \cdots$) with the greater neighbor of the maximum ([[St000060]]), see also [3].

The number of factors in the Catalan decomposition of a binary word. Every binary word can be written in a unique way as $(\mathcal D 0)^\ell \mathcal D (1 \mathcal D)^m$, where $\mathcal D$ is the set of Dyck words. This is the Catalan factorisation, see [1, sec.9.1.2]. This statistic records the number of factors in the Catalan factorisation, that is, $\ell + m$ if the middle Dyck word is empty and $\ell + 1 + m$ otherwise.

The number of critical steps in the Catalan decomposition of a binary word. Every binary word can be written in a unique way as $(\mathcal D 0)^\ell \mathcal D (1 \mathcal D)^m$, where $\mathcal D$ is the set of Dyck words. This is the Catalan factorisation, see [1, sec.9.1.2]. This statistic records the number of critical steps $\ell + m$ in the Catalan factorisation. The distribution of this statistic on words of length $n$ is $$ (n+1)q^n+\sum_{\substack{k=0\\\text{k even}}}^{n-2} \frac{(n-1-k)^2}{1+k/2}\binom{n}{k/2}q^{n-2-k}. $$

The length of the Lyndon factorization of the binary word. The Lyndon factorization of a finite word w is its unique factorization as a non-increasing product of Lyndon words, i.e., $w = l_1\dots l_n$ where each $l_i$ is a Lyndon word and $l_1 \geq\dots\geq l_n$.

The number of boxes in the diagram of a partition that do not lie in its Durfee square.
