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 de-duplicate of a graph.
Let $G = (V, E)$ be a graph. This map yields the graph whose vertex set is the set of (distinct) neighbourhoods $\{N_v | v \in V\}$ of $G$, and has an edge $(N_a, N_b)$ between two vertices if and only if $(a, b)$ is an edge of $G$. This is well-defined, because if $N_a = N_c$ and $N_b = N_d$, then $(a, b)\in E$ if and only if $(c, d)\in E$.
The image of this map is the set of so-called 'mating graphs' or 'point-determining graphs'.
This map preserves the chromatic number.

Sends a Dyck path $D$ with valley at positions $\{(i_1,j_1),\ldots,(i_k,j_k)\}$ to the unique non-crossing permutation $\pi$ having descents $\{i_1,\ldots,i_k\}$ and whose inverse has descents $\{j_1,\ldots,j_k\}$.
It sends the area St000012The area of a Dyck path. to the number of inversions St000018The number of inversions of a permutation. and the major index St000027The major index of a Dyck path. to $n(n-1)$ minus the sum of the major index St000004The major index of a permutation. and the inverse major index St000305The inverse major index of a permutation..

The graph of inversions of a permutation.
For a permutation of $\{1,\dots,n\}$, this is the graph with vertices $\{1,\dots,n\}$, where $(i,j)$ is an edge if and only if it is an inversion of the permutation.
