Push
Push notifications are a type of technology for sending data to phones (pushing). An example would be an SMS message. See also WAP, Push email, etc.
The opposite of this technology is usually referred to as “polling” where the phone will periodically ask a server for new information or content.
Pull
“Pull notification” is usually the term used to refer to the graphical representation of a notification or event. This is displayed in the area at the top of Android phones. This is the place the user sees a visual “cue” that something has happened.
Other terms related to this are “pull down menu”, “drop down notifications” etc
