Abstract
The selfadjoint extensions of a closed linear relation $R$ from
a Hilbert space $\mathfrak H_1$ to a Hilbert space $\mathfrak H_2$ are considered in the Hilbert space
$\mathfrak H_1\oplus\mathfrak H_2$ that contains the graph of $R$.
They will be described by $2 \times 2$ blocks of linear relations
and by means of boundary triplets associated with a closed symmetric
relation $S$ in $\mathfrak H_1 \oplus \mathfrak H_2$ that is induced by $R$.
Such a relation is characterized by the orthogonality property ${\rm dom\,} S \perp {\rm ran\,} S$
and it is nonnegative. All nonnegative selfadjoint extensions $A$,
in particular the Friedrichs and Krein-von Neumann extensions, are parametrized via
an explicit block formula. In particular, it is shown that $A$ belongs to
the class of extremal extensions of $S$ if and only if ${\rm dom\,} A \perp {\rm ran\,} A$.
In addition, using asymptotic properties of an associated Weyl function,
it is shown that there is a natural correspondence between semibounded selfadjoint extensions of $S$
and semibounded parameters describing them if and only if the operator part of $R$ is bounded.
