AB - In this paper we consider linear Hamiltonian differential systems without the
controllability (or normality) assumption. We prove the Rayleigh principle for these
systems with Dirichlet boundary conditions, which provides a variational characterization
of the finite eigenvalues of the associated self-adjoint eigenvalue problem. This result
generalizes the traditional Rayleigh principle to possibly abnormal linear Hamiltonian
systems. The main tools are the extended Picone formula, which is proven here for this
general setting, results on piecewise constant kernels for conjoined bases of the
Hamiltonian system, and the oscillation theorem relating the number of proper focal points
of conjoined bases with the number of finite eigenvalues. As applications we obtain the
expansion theorem in the space of admissible functions without controllability and a
result on coercivity of the corresponding quadratic functional.
