Abstract
We offer a classification of a broad and practically relevant class of symmetric double saddle-point system. At the core of the paper is the division of the associated matrices into ``block-arrow'' and ``block-tridiagonal'' forms. We describe relevant applications, invertibility conditions, spectral properties, and block preconditioners. Our discussion is kept within a general framework rather than tailored to specific applications.
