Abstract

For a maximal separable subfield KK of a central simple algebra AA, we provide a semiring isomorphism between KK-KK-bimodules AA and HH-HH bisets of G=\Gal(L/F)G = \Gal(L/F), where F=Z(A)F = \operatorname{Z}(A), LL is the Galois closure of K/FK/F, and H=\Gal(L/K)H = \Gal(L/K). This leads to a combinatorial interpretation of the growth of dimK((KaK)i)\dim_K((KaK)^i), for fixed aAa \in A, especially in terms of Kummer sets.
