Abstract

A description of generalized resolvents for a densely defined Hermitian operatorA in a Krein space\(\mathcal{K}\) is given under explicit consideration of the number of negative squares of the inner product on the extending space

and of the forms [A·,·], [A·,·],A being a selfadjoint extension ofA which corresponds to the generalized resolvent. New classesN κ k of analytic functions are introduced for this purpose. An application to a Sturm-Liouville operator with indefinite weight function is discussed.
