A variational characterization, involving a max-inf of the Rayleigh quotient, is established for certain eigenvalues of a wide class of definitizable selfadjoint operators Q in a Krein space. The operator Q may have continuous spectrum and nonreal and nonsemisimple eigenvalues; in particular it may have embedded eigenvalues. Various applications are given to selfadjoint linear and quadratic eigenvalue problems with weak definiteness assumptions.
