Springer Numbers and Arnold Families Revisited.
2021
For the calculation of Springer numbers (of root systems) of type $B_n$ and $D_n$, Arnold introduced a signed analogue of alternating permutations, called $\beta_n$-snakes, and derived recurrence relations for enumerating the $\beta_n$-snakes starting with $k$. The results are presented in the form of double triangular arrays ($v_{n,k}$) of integers, $1\le |k|\le n$. An Arnold family is a sequence of sets of such objects as $\beta_n$-snakes that are counted by $(v_{n,k})$. As a refinement of Arnold's result, we give analogous arrays of polynomials, defined by recurrence, for the calculation of the polynomials associated with successive derivatives of $\tan x$ and $\sec x$, established by Hoffman. Moreover, we provide some new Arnold families of combinatorial objects that realize the polynomial arrays, which are signed variants of Andr\'{e} permutations and Simsun permutations.
