Summary: We consider a nonnegative selfadjoint operator \(A\) in a Krein space such that \(\rho(A)\neq \emptyset\) and \(\infty\not\in c_s(A)\) (i.e. \(\infty\) is not a singular critical point of \(A\)). Then we show that these properties remain true for a certain perturbation of the operator, acting in a slightly perturbed Krein space. This result is applied to elliptic differential operators with indefinite weights and to certain difference operators.
