The cardinality of a maximal independent set of vertices of a graph. An independent set of a graph is a set of pairwise non-adjacent vertices. A maximum independent set is an independent set of maximum cardinality. This statistic is also called the independence number or stability number $\alpha(G)$ of $G$.

The maximal number of occurrences of a colour in a proper colouring of a graph. To any proper colouring with the minimal number of colours possible we associate the integer partition recording how often each colour is used. This statistic records the largest part occurring in any of these partitions. For example, the graph on six vertices consisting of a square together with two attached triangles - ([(0,4),(0,5),(1,3),(1,5),(2,3),(2,4),(3,5),(4,5)],6) in the list of values - is three-colourable and admits two colouring schemes, $[2,2,2]$ and $[3,2,1]$. Therefore, the statistic on this graph is $3$.

The length of the partition.

The last part of an integer composition.

The cop number of a graph. This is the minimal number of cops needed to catch the robber. The algorithm is from [2].

The Euler characteristic of a graph according to Knill. This is $$\sum_{k\geq 1} (-1)^{k-1} c_k,$$ where $c_k$ is the number of cliques with $k$ vertices.
