Abstract

We generalize Amitsur's construction of central simple algebras over a field FF which are split by field extensions possessing a derivation with field of constants FF to nonassociative algebras: for every central division algebra DD over a field FF of characteristic zero there exists an infinite-dimensional unital nonassociative algebra whose right nucleus is DD and whose left and middle nucleus are a field extension KK of FF splitting DD, where FF is algebraically closed in KK. We then give a short direct proof that every pp-algebra of degree mm, which has a purely inseparable splitting field KK of degree mm and exponent one, is a differential extension of KK and cyclic. We obtain finite-dimensional division algebras over a field FF of characteristic p>0p>0 whose right nucleus is a division pp-algebra.
