On Finite Rank Perturbations of Selfadjoint Operators in Krein Spaces and Eigenvalues in Spectral Gaps

摘要

It is shown that the finiteness of eigenvalues in a spectral gap of a definitizable or locally definitizable selfadjoint operator in a Krein space is preserved under finite rank perturbations. This results is applied to a class of singular Sturm-Liouville operators with an indefinite weight function.
