The minimal length of a chain of small intervals in a lattice.
An interval $[a, b]$ is small if $b$ is a join of elements covering $a$.

The lattice of maximal antichains in a poset.
An antichain $A$ in a poset is maximal if there is no antichain of larger cardinality which contains all elements of $A$.
The set of maximal antichains can be ordered by setting $A \leq B \Leftrightarrow \mathop{\downarrow} A \subseteq \mathop{\downarrow}B$, where $\mathop{\downarrow}A$ is the order ideal generated by $A$.

Sends a Dyck path to the ordered tree encoding the heights of the path.
This map is recursively defined as follows: A Dyck path $D$ of semilength $n$ may be decomposed, according to its returns (St000011The number of touch points (or returns) of a Dyck path.), into smaller paths $D_1,\dots,D_k$ of respective semilengths $n_1,\dots,n_k$ (so one has $n = n_1 + \dots n_k$) each of which has no returns.
Denote by $\tilde D_i$ the path of semilength $n_i-1$ obtained from $D_i$ by removing the initial up- and the final down-step.
This map then sends $D$ to the tree $T$ having a root note with ordered children $T_1,\dots,T_k$ which are again ordered trees computed from $D_1,\dots,D_k$ respectively.
The unique path of semilength $1$ is sent to the tree consisting of a single node.

Return the poset obtained by interpreting the tree as the Hasse diagram of a graph.
