We show that a finite-dimensional tame division algebra D over a Henselian field F has a maximal subfield Galois over F if and only if its residue division algebra has a maximal subfield Galois over the residue field of F. This generalizes…

Let F be a Henselian valued field with char(F) = p and D a semi-ramified, "not strongly degenerate" p-algebra. We show that all Galois subfields of D are inertial. Using this as a tool we study generic abelian crossed product p-algebras,…

A splitting field of a central simple algebra is said to be absolute Galois if it is Galois over some fixed subfield of the centre of the algebra. The paper provides an existence theorem for such fields over global fields with enough roots…

We describe relations between maximal subfields in a division ring and in its rational extensions. More precisely, we prove that properties such as being Galois or purely inseparable over the centre generically carry over from one to…

A finite group G is admissible over a field M if there is a division algebra whose center is M with a maximal subfield G-Galois over M. We consider nine possible notions of being admissible over M with respect to a subfield K of M, where…

Let $G$ be an algebraic group, $X$ a generically free $G$-variety, and $K=k(X)^G$. A field extension $L$ of $K$ is called a splitting field of $X$ if the image of the class of $X$ under the natural map $H^1(K, G) \mapsto H^1(L, G)$ is…

The existence of finite dimensional central division algebras with no maximal subfield that is Galois over the center (called noncrossed products), was for a time the biggest open problem in the theory of division algebras, before it was…

A finite group G is called admissible over a given field if there exists a central division algebra that contains a G-Galois field extension as a maximal subfield. We give a definition of embedding problems of division algebras that extends…

An algebraic technique is presented that does not use results of model theory and makes it possible to construct a general Galois theory of arbitrary nonlinear systems of partial differential equations. The algebraic technique is based on…

A graded-division algebra is an algebra graded by a group such that all nonzero homogeneous elements are invertible. This includes division algebras equipped with an arbitrary group grading (including the trivial grading). We show that a…

For any number field K, it is unknown which finite groups appear as Galois groups of extensions L/K such that L is a maximal subfield of a division algebra with center K (a K-division algebra). For K=Q, the answer is described by the long…

For any central simple algebra over a field F which contains a maximal subfield M with non-trivial F-automorphism group G, G is solvable if and only if the algebra contains a finite chain of subalgebras which are generalized cyclic algebras…

In this exposition we discuss the theory of algebraic extensions of valued fields. Our approach is mostly through Galois theory. Most of the results are well-known, but some are new. No previous knowledge on the theory of valuations is…

We show that under certain conditions every maximal symmetric subfield of a central division algebra with positive unitary involution $(B,\tau)$ will be a Galois extension of the fixed field of $\tau$ and will "real split" $(B,\tau)$. As an…

A finite group $G$ is said to be admissible over a field $F$ if there exists a division algebra $D$ central over $F$ with a maximal subfield $L$ such that $L/F$ is Galois with group $G$. In this paper we give a complete characterization of…

Let $E$ be a primarily quasilocal field, $M/E$ a finite Galois extension and $D$ a central division $E$-algebra of index divisible by $[M\colon E]$. In addition to the main result of Part I, this part of the paper shows that if the Galois…

The first examples of noncrossed product division algebras were given by Amitsur in 1972. His method is based on two basic steps: (1) If the universal division algebra $U(k,n)$ is a $G$-crossed product then every division algebra of degree…

In positive characteristic, nearly all Picard-Vessiot extensions are inseparable over some intermediate iterative differential extensions. In the Galois correspondence, these intermediate fields correspond to nonreduced subgroup schemes of…

Intended for mathematical physicists interested in applications of the division algebras to physics, this article highlights some of their more elegant properties with connections to the theories of Galois fields and quadratic residues.

For a finite totally ramified extension $L$ of a complete discrete valuation field $K$ with the perfect residue field of characteristic $p>0$, it is known that $L/K$ is an abelian extension if the upper ramification breaks are integers and…
