The rank of the boundary operator in degree 1 of the chain complex of the order complex of the poset.

The number of positive eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix of the graph. This is the number of vertices minus the number of connected components of the graph.

The number of ones in a binary word. This is also known as the Hamming weight of the word.

The cardinality of the support of a permutation. A permutation $\sigma$ may be written as a product $\sigma = s_{i_1}\dots s_{i_k}$ with $k$ minimal, where $s_i = (i,i+1)$ denotes the simple transposition swapping the entries in positions $i$ and $i+1$. The set of indices $\{i_1,\dots,i_k\}$ is the '''support''' of $\sigma$ and independent of the chosen way to write $\sigma$ as such a product. See [2], Definition 1 and Proposition 10. The '''connectivity set''' of $\sigma$ of length $n$ is the set of indices $1 \leq i < n$ such that $\sigma(k) < i$ for all $k < i$. Thus, the connectivity set is the complement of the support.

The pebbling number of a connected graph.

The inversion number of the alternating sign matrix. If we denote the entries of the alternating sign matrix as $a_{i,j}$, the inversion number is defined as $$\sum_{i > k}\sum_{j < \ell} a_{i,j}a_{k,\ell}.$$ When restricted to permutation matrices, this gives the usual inversion number of the permutation.

The number of Bruhat lower covers of a permutation. This is, for a permutation $\pi$, the number of permutations $\tau$ with $\operatorname{inv}(\tau) = \operatorname{inv}(\pi) - 1$ such that $\tau*t = \pi$ for a transposition $t$. This is also the number of occurrences of the boxed pattern $21$: occurrences of the pattern $21$ such that any entry between the two matched entries is either larger or smaller than both of the matched entries.

The number of non-left-to-right-maxima of a permutation. An integer $\sigma_i$ in the one-line notation of a permutation $\sigma$ is a **non-left-to-right-maximum** if there exists a $j < i$ such that $\sigma_j > \sigma_i$.
