The hat guessing number of a graph.
Suppose that each vertex of a graph corresponds to a player, wearing a hat whose color is arbitrarily chosen from a set of $q$ possible colors. Each player can see the hat colors of his neighbors, but not his own hat color. All of the players are asked to guess their own hat colors simultaneously, according to a predetermined guessing strategy and the hat colors they see, where no communication between them is allowed. The hat guessing number $HG(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the largest integer $q$ such that there exists a guessing strategy guaranteeing at least one correct guess for any hat assignment of $q$ possible colors.
Because it suffices that a single player guesses correctly, the hat guessing number of a graph is the maximum of the hat guessing numbers of its connected components.

The graph of inversions of a permutation.
For a permutation of $\{1,\dots,n\}$, this is the graph with vertices $\{1,\dots,n\}$, where $(i,j)$ is an edge if and only if it is an inversion of the permutation.

Return a permutation whose multiset of invisible inversion bottoms is the multiset of descent views of the given permutation.
An invisible inversion of a permutation $\sigma$ is a pair $i < j$ such that $i < \sigma(j) < \sigma(i)$. The element $\sigma(j)$ is then an invisible inversion bottom.
A descent view in a permutation $\pi$ is an element $\pi(j)$ such that $\pi(i+1) < \pi(j) < \pi(i)$, and additionally the smallest element in the decreasing run containing $\pi(i)$ is smaller than the smallest element in the decreasing run containing $\pi(j)$.
This map is a bijection $\chi:\mathfrak S_n \to \mathfrak S_n$, such that

• the multiset of descent views in $\pi$ is the multiset of invisible inversion bottoms in $\chi(\pi)$,
• the set of left-to-right maxima of $\pi$ is the set of maximal elements in the cycles of $\chi(\pi)$,
• the set of global ascent of $\pi$ is the set of global ascent of $\chi(\pi)$,
• the set of maximal elements in the decreasing runs of $\pi$ is the set of weak deficiency positions of $\chi(\pi)$, and
• the set of minimal elements in the decreasing runs of $\pi$ is the set of weak deficiency values of $\chi(\pi)$.

Sents a permutation to its complement.
The complement of a permutation $\sigma$ of length $n$ is the permutation $\tau$ with $\tau(i) = n+1-\sigma(i)$
