Abstract
The genus of a finite-dimensional central division algebra over a field is defined as the collection of classes , where is a central division -algebra having the same maximal subfields as . We show that the fact that quaternion division algebras and have the same maximal subfields does not imply that the matrix algebras and have the same maximal subfields for . Moreover, for any odd , we construct a field such that there are two quaternion division -algebras and and a central division -algebra of degree and exponent such that but .
