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.

Sends the set partition to the permutation obtained by considering the blocks as increasing cycles.

Let $\sigma = (i_{11}\cdots i_{1k_1})\cdots(i_{\ell 1}\cdots i_{\ell k_\ell})$ be a permutation given by cycle notation such that every cycle starts with its maximal entry, and all cycles are ordered increasingly by these maximal entries.
Maps $\sigma$ to the permutation $[i_{11},\ldots,i_{1k_1},\ldots,i_{\ell 1},\ldots,i_{\ell k_\ell}]$ in one-line notation.
In other words, this map sends the maximal entries of the cycles to the left-to-right maxima, and the sequences between two left-to-right maxima are given by the cycles.

The Clarke-Steingrimsson-Zeng map sending descents to excedances.
This is the map $\Phi$ in [1, sec.3]. In particular, it satisfies
$$ (des, Dbot, Ddif, Res)\pi = (exc, Ebot, Edif, Ine)\Phi(\pi), $$
where

• $des$ is the number of descents, St000021The number of descents of a permutation.,
• $exc$ is the number of (strict) excedances, St000155The number of exceedances (also excedences) of a permutation.,
• $Dbot$ is the sum of the descent bottoms, St000154The sum of the descent bottoms of a permutation.,
• $Ebot$ is the sum of the excedance bottoms,
• $Ddif$ is the sum of the descent differences, St000030The sum of the descent differences of a permutations.,
• $Edif$ is the sum of the excedance differences (or depth), St000029The depth of a permutation.,
• $Res$ is the sum of the (right) embracing numbers,
• $Ine$ is the sum of the side numbers.
