The first entry of the permutation.
This can be described as 1 plus the number of occurrences of the vincular pattern ([2,1], {(0,0),(0,1),(0,2)}), i.e., the first column is shaded, see [1].
This statistic is related to the number of deficiencies St000703The number of deficiencies of a permutation. as follows: consider the arc diagram of a permutation $\pi$ of $n$, together with its rotations, obtained by conjugating with the long cycle $(1,\dots,n)$. Drawing the labels $1$ to $n$ in this order on a circle, and the arcs $(i, \pi(i))$ as straight lines, the rotation of $\pi$ is obtained by replacing each number $i$ by $(i\bmod n) +1$. Then, $\pi(1)-1$ is the number of rotations of $\pi$ where the arc $(1, \pi(1))$ is a deficiency. In particular, if $O(\pi)$ is the orbit of rotations of $\pi$, then the number of deficiencies of $\pi$ equals
$$\frac{1}{|O(\pi)|}\sum_{\sigma\in O(\pi)} (\sigma(1)-1).$$

The Lalanne-Kreweras involution on Dyck paths.
Label the upsteps from left to right and record the labels on the first up step of each double rise. Do the same for the downsteps. Then form the Dyck path whose ascent lengths and descent lengths are the consecutives differences of the labels.

The zeta map on Dyck paths.
The zeta map $\zeta$ is a bijection on Dyck paths of semilength $n$.
It was defined in [1, Theorem 1], see also [2, Theorem 3.15] and sends the bistatistic (area, dinv) to the bistatistic (bounce, area). It is defined by sending a Dyck path $D$ with corresponding area sequence $a=(a_1,\ldots,a_n)$ to a Dyck path as follows:

• First, build an intermediate Dyck path consisting of $d_1$ north steps, followed by $d_1$ east steps, followed by $d_2$ north steps and $d_2$ east steps, and so on, where $d_i$ is the number of $i-1$'s within the sequence $a$.
  For example, given $a=(0,1,2,2,2,3,1,2)$, we build the path
  $$NE\ NNEE\ NNNNEEEE\ NE.$$
• Next, the rectangles between two consecutive peaks are filled. Observe that such the rectangle between the $k$th and the $(k+1)$st peak must be filled by $d_k$ east steps and $d_{k+1}$ north steps. In the above example, the rectangle between the second and the third peak must be filled by $2$ east and $4$ north steps, the $2$ being the number of $1$'s in $a$, and $4$ being the number of $2$'s. To fill such a rectangle, scan through the sequence a from left to right, and add east or north steps whenever you see a $k-1$ or $k$, respectively. So to fill the $2\times 4$ rectangle, we look for $1$'s and $2$'s in the sequence and see $122212$, so this rectangle gets filled with $ENNNEN$.
  The complete path we obtain in thus
  $$NENNENNNENEEENEE.$$

Sends a Dyck path to a 132-avoiding permutation.
This bijection is defined in [1, Section 2].
