Geometry of Weyl theory for Jacobi matrices with matrix entries

A Jacobi matrix with matrix entries is a self-adjoint block tridiagonal matrix with invertible blocks on the off-diagonals. The Weyl surface describing the dependence of Green’s matrix on the boundary conditions is interpreted as the set of maximally isotropic subspaces of a quadratic form given by the Wronskian. Analysis of the possibly degenerate limit quadratic form leads to the limit point/limit surface theory of maximal symmetric extensions for semi-infinite Jacobi matrices with matrix entries with arbitrary deficiency indices. The resolvent of the extensions is calculated explicitly.
