Abstract
For a permutation π in the symmetric group S n let the total degree be its valency in the Hasse diagram of the strong Bruhat order on S n, and let the down degree be the number of permutations which are covered by π in the strong Bruhat order. The maxima of the total degree and the down degree and their values at a random permutation are computed. Proofs involve variants of a classical theorem of Turán from extremal graph theory.
