Abstract
In this paper we associate an invariant to a biquaternion algebra over a field with a subfield such that is a quadratic separable extension and . We show that this invariant is trivial exactly when for some biquaternion algebra over . We also study the behavior of this invariant under certain field extensions and provide several interesting examples.
