The number of regions of the inversion arrangement of a permutation.
The inversion arrangement $\mathcal{A}_w$ consists of the hyperplanes $x_i-x_j=0$ such that $(i,j)$ is an inversion of $w$.
Postnikov [4] conjectured that the number of regions in $\mathcal{A}_w$ equals the number of permutations in the interval $[id,w]$ in the strong Bruhat order if and only if $w$ avoids $4231$, $35142$, $42513$, $351624$. This conjecture was proved by Hultman-Linusson-Shareshian-Sjöstrand [1].
Oh-Postnikov-Yoo [3] showed that the number of regions of $\mathcal{A}_w$ is $|\chi_{G_w}(-1)|$ where $\chi_{G_w}$ is the chromatic polynomial of the inversion graph $G_w$. This is the graph with vertices ${1,2,\ldots,n}$ and edges $(i,j)$ for $i\lneq j$ $w_i\gneq w_j$.
For a permutation $w=w_1\cdots w_n$, Lewis-Morales [2] and Hultman (see appendix in [2]) showed that this number equals the number of placements of $n$ non-attacking rooks on the south-west Rothe diagram of $w$.

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.).

Sends an integer partition to the standard tableau obtained by filling the numbers $1$ through $n$ row by row.

Return the permutation obtained by reading the entries of the tableau row by row, starting with the bottom-most row in English notation.
