The number of cyclically simple transpositions decreasing the number of cyclic descents needed to sort a permutation.
This is for a permutation $\sigma$ of length $n$ and the set $T = \{ (1,2), \dots, (n-1,n), (1,n) \}$ given by
$$\min\{ k \mid \sigma = t_1\dots t_k \text{ for } t_i \in T \text{ such that } t_1\dots t_j \text{ has more cyclic descents than } t_1\dots t_{j-1} \text{ for all } j\}.$$

The Billey-Jockusch-Stanley bijection to 321-avoiding permutations.

Sends a permutation to the unique permutation such that the Lehmer code is sent to the major code.
The Lehmer code encodes the inversions of a permutation and the major code encodes its major index. In particular, the number of inversions of a permutation equals the major index of its image under this map.
* The Lehmer code of a permutation $\sigma$ is given by $L(\sigma) = l_1 \ldots l_n$ with $l_i = \# \{ j > i : \sigma_j < \sigma_i \}$. In particular, $l_i$ is the number of boxes in the $i$-th column of the Rothe diagram. For example, the Lehmer code of $\sigma = [4,3,1,5,2]$ is $32010$. The Lehmer code $L : \mathfrak{S}_n\ \tilde\longrightarrow\ S_n$ is a bijection between permutations of size $n$ and sequences $l_1\ldots l_n \in \mathbf{N}^n$ with $l_i \leq i$.
* The major code $M(\sigma)$ of a permutation $\sigma \in \mathfrak{S}_n$ is a way to encode a permutation as a sequence $m_1 m_2 \ldots m_n$ with $m_i \geq i$. To define $m_i$, let $\operatorname{del}_i(\sigma)$ be the normalized permutation obtained by removing all $\sigma_j < i$ from the one-line notation of $\sigma$. The $i$-th index is then given by
$$m_i = \operatorname{maj}(\operatorname{del}_i(\sigma)) - \operatorname{maj}(\operatorname{del}_{i-1}(\sigma)).$$
For example, the permutation $[9,3,5,7,2,1,4,6,8]$ has major code $[5, 0, 1, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 0]$ since
$$\operatorname{maj}([8,2,4,6,1,3,5,7]) = 5, \quad \operatorname{maj}([7,1,3,5,2,4,6]) = 5, \quad \operatorname{maj}([6,2,4,1,3,5]) = 4,$$
$$\operatorname{maj}([5,1,3,2,4]) = 4, \quad \operatorname{maj}([4,2,1,3]) = 3, \quad \operatorname{maj}([3,1,2]) = 1, \quad \operatorname{maj}([2,1]) = 1.$$
Observe that the sum of the major code of $\sigma$ equals the major index of $\sigma$.

Sends a permutation to its image under the Foata bijection.
The Foata bijection $\phi$ is a bijection on the set of words with no two equal letters. It can be defined by induction on the size of the word:
Given a word $w_1 w_2 ... w_n$, compute the image inductively by starting with $\phi(w_1) = w_1$.
At the $i$-th step, if $\phi(w_1 w_2 ... w_i) = v_1 v_2 ... v_i$, define $\phi(w_1 w_2 ... w_i w_{i+1})$ by placing $w_{i+1}$ on the end of the word $v_1 v_2 ... v_i$ and breaking the word up into blocks as follows.

• If $w_{i+1} \geq v_i$, place a vertical line to the right of each $v_k$ for which $w_{i+1} \geq v_k$.
• If $w_{i+1} < v_i$, place a vertical line to the right of each $v_k$ for which $w_{i+1} < v_k$.

In either case, place a vertical line at the start of the word as well. Now, within each block between vertical lines, cyclically shift the entries one place to the right.
To compute $\phi([1,4,2,5,3])$, the sequence of words is

• $1$
• $|1|4 \to 14$
• $|14|2 \to 412$
• $|4|1|2|5 \to 4125$
• $|4|125|3 \to 45123.$

In total, this gives $\phi([1,4,2,5,3]) = [4,5,1,2,3]$.
This bijection sends the major index (St000004The major index of a permutation.) to the number of inversions (St000018The number of inversions of a permutation.).
