Renormalized Oscillation Theory for Singular Linear Hamiltonian Systems

Working with a general class of linear Hamiltonian systems with at least one singular boundary condition, we show that renormalized oscillation results can be obtained in a natural way through consideration of the Maslov index associated with appropriately chosen paths of Lagrangian subspaces of $\mathbb{C}^{2n}$. This extends previous work by the authors for regular linear Hamiltonian systems.
