In this paper we study division algebras over the function fields of curves over $\Q_p$. The first and main tool is to view these fields as function fields over nonsingular $S$ which are projective of relative dimension 1 over the $p$ adic…

We examine when division algebras can share common splitting fields of certain types. In particular, we show that one can find fields for which one has infinitely many Brauer classes of the same index and period at least 3, all…

For a $p$-adic curve $X$, we study conditions under which all classes in the $n$-torsion of $Br(X)$ are $\mathbb{Z}/n$-cyclic. We show that in general not all classes are $\mathbb{Z}/n$-cyclic classes. On the other hand, if $X$ has good…

We show that if two division $p$-algebras of prime degree share an inseparable field extension of the center then they also share a cyclic separable one. We show that the converse is in general not true. We also point out that sharing all…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We prove that any division algebra over k(x,y) whose ramification locus lies on a quartic curve is cyclic.

The genus gen(D) of a finite-dimensional central division algebra D over a field F is defined as the collection of classes [D'] in the Brauer group Br(F), where D' is a central division F-algebra having the same maximal subfields as D. For…

Milliet asks the following question: given two prime numbers $p\neq q$, is there a division algebra of characteristic $p$ which is of dp-rank $q^2$ and of dimension $q^2$ over its center? We answer in the affirmative. We also give an…

A simple sufficient condition for certain cyclic algebras of odd degree d to be split is presented. It employs certain binary forms of degree d and the values they represent. A similar sufficient condition for certain Albert algebras not to…

We conjecture that a $p$-algebra over a complete discrete valued field $K$ contains a totally ramified purely inseparable subfield if and only if it contains a totally ramified cyclic maximal subfield. We prove the conjecture in several…

We study algebras $A,$ over a field of characteristic zero, satisfying $(x^p, x^q, x^r)=0$ for $p, q, r$ in ${1, 2}.$ The existence of a unit element in such algebras leads to the third power-associativity. If, in addition, $A$ has degree…

Let $K$ be a complete discrete valued field of characteristic $p$ with residue $k$ which is not necessarily perfect. We prove the Conjecture in \cite{cs} that a $p$-algebra over $K$ contains a totally ramified cyclic maximal subfield if it…

Rowen and Saltman proved that every division algebra which is split by a dihedral extension of degree $2n$ of the center, $n$ odd, is in fact cyclic. The proof requires roots of unity of order $n$ in the center. We show that for $n=5$, this…

We consider central simple $K$-algebras which happen to bedifferential graded $K$-algebras. Two such algebras $A$ and $B$are considered equivalent if there are bounded complexes of finite dimensional$K$-vector spaces $C_A$ and $C_B$ such…

We reprove two results of Saltman, Theorem 5.1 and Corollary 5.2 of [Sa07]: If F is the function field of a smooth p-adic curve and D is an F-division algebra of prime degree l\neq p, then D is Z/l-cyclic, and that if D is an F-division…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and $R$ a $p$-torsion-free commutative $\mathbb{Z}_{(p)}$-algebra. We compute the periodic cyclic homology over $R$ of the universal differential graded algebra $R//p$ which is obtained from $R$ by universally…

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…

We generalize Amitsur's construction of central simple algebras over a field $F$ which are split by field extensions possessing a derivation with field of constants $F$ to nonassociative algebras: for every central division algebra $D$ over…

Let $K$ be the fraction field of a 2-dimensional, henselian, excellent local domain with finite residue field $k$. When the characteristic of $k$ is not 2, we prove that every quadratic form of rank $\ge 9$ is isotropic over $K$ using…

We classify all division algebras that are principal Albert isotopes of a cyclic Galois field extension of degree $n>2$ up to isomorphisms. We achieve a ``tight'' classification when the cyclic Galois field extension is cubic. The…

In [2], an exhaustive construction is achieved for the class of all 4-dimensional unital division algebras over finite fields of odd order, whose left nucleus is not minimal and whose automorphism group contains Klein's four-group. We…
