Arnol'd proved in 1992 that Springer numbers enumerate the snakes, which are type B analogs of alternating permutations. Chen, Fan and Jia in 2011 introduced the labeled ballot paths and established a “hard” bijection with snakes. Callan conjectured in 2012 and Han–Kitaev–Zhang proved recently that rc-invariant alternating permutations are counted by Springer numbers. Very recently, Chen–Fang–Kitaev–Zhang investigated multi-dimensional permutations and proved that weakly increasing 3-dimensional permutations are also counted by Springer numbers. In this work, we construct a sequence of “natural” bijections linking the above four combinatorial objects.
期刊介绍:
Discrete Mathematics provides a common forum for significant research in many areas of discrete mathematics and combinatorics. Among the fields covered by Discrete Mathematics are graph and hypergraph theory, enumeration, coding theory, block designs, the combinatorics of partially ordered sets, extremal set theory, matroid theory, algebraic combinatorics, discrete geometry, matrices, and discrete probability theory.
Items in the journal include research articles (Contributions or Notes, depending on length) and survey/expository articles (Perspectives). Efforts are made to process the submission of Notes (short articles) quickly. The Perspectives section features expository articles accessible to a broad audience that cast new light or present unifying points of view on well-known or insufficiently-known topics.
