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.

This map is recursively defined as follows.
The unique empty path of semilength $0$ is sent to itself.
Let $D$ be a Dyck path of semilength $n > 0$ and decompose it into $1 D_1 0 D_2$ with Dyck paths $D_1, D_2$ of respective semilengths $n_1$ and $n_2$ such that $n_1$ is minimal. One then has $n_1+n_2 = n-1$.
Now let $\tilde D_1$ and $\tilde D_2$ be the recursively defined respective images of $D_1$ and $D_2$ under this map. The image of $D$ is then defined as $1 \tilde D_2 0 \tilde D_1$.

The threshold graph corresponding to the composition.
A threshold graph is a graph that can be obtained from the empty graph by adding successively isolated and dominating vertices.
A threshold graph is uniquely determined by its degree sequence.
The Laplacian spectrum of a threshold graph is integral. Interpreting it as an integer partition, it is the conjugate of the partition given by its degree sequence.

Send a Dyck path to the composition of sizes of its rises.
