We extend the concept of Lifshits--Krein spectral shift function associated with a pair of self-adjoint operators to the case of pairs of admissible operators that are similar to self-adjoint operators. Our main result is the following. Let \cH_0 and \cH_1 be separable Hilbert spaces, A_0 a self-adjoint operator in \cH_0, A_1 a self-adjoint operator in \cH_1, and B_{ij} a bounded operator from \cH_j to \cH_i, i=0,1, j=1-i, and B_10=B_01^*. Assume that the block operator matrix \bH=\bA+\bB=(A_0 & B_01 B_{10}& A_1) has reducing graph subspaces of the form {x_i\oplus Q_ji x_i: x_i\in\cH_i}, i=0,1, j=1-i, and Q_ji are Hilbert-Schmidt operators such that Q_ji=-Q_ij^*. If both (\bH-z\bI)^{-1}-(\bA-z\bI)^{-1} and \bB\bQ(\bA-z\bI)^{-1} are trace class operators in \cH for \Img(z)\neq 0, then the operators A_i+B_ij Q_ji and A_i, i=0,1, j=1-i, acting in the spaces \cH_i are resolvent comparable admissible operators. Moreover, the spectral shift function \xi(x,\bH,\bA) associated with the pair (\bH,\bA) admits the representation \xi(x,\bH,\bA)=\xi(x,A_0+B_01 Q_10,A_0)+ \xi(x,A_1+B_10 Q_01,A_1). We also obtain new representations for the solution to the operator Sylvester equation in the form of Stieltjes operator integrals and formulate sufficient criterion for the strong solvability of the operator Riccati equation that ensures the existence of reducing graph subspaces for block operator matrices.
