Indecomposable p-algebras and Galois subfields in generic abelian crossed products
نویسنده
چکیده
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, proving among other things that the noncyclic generic abelian crossed product p-algebras defined by non-degenerate matrices are indecomposable p-algebras. To construct examples of these indecomposable p-algebras with exponent p and large index we study the relationship between degeneracy in matrices defining abelian crossed products and torsion in CH2 of Severi-Brauer varieties.

Degeneracy and Decomposability in Abelian Crossed Products
Let p be an odd prime. In this paper we study the relationship between degeneracy and decomposability in abelian crossed products. In particular we construct an indecomposable abelian crossed product division algebra of exponent p and index p. The algebra we construct is generic in the sense of [AS78] and has the property that its underlying abelian crossed product is a decomposable division al...
متن کاملFe b 20 07 Prime to p extensions of the generic abelian crossed product
In this paper we prove that the noncyclic generic abelian crossed product p-algebras constructed by Amitsur and Saltman in [AS78] remain noncyclic after tensoring by any prime to p extension of their centers. We also prove that an example due to Saltman of an indecomposable generic abelian crossed product with exponent p and degree p 2 remains indecomposable after any prime to p extension. 0 In...
متن کاملOn the Galois correspondence for Hopf Galois structures
We study the question of the surjectivity of the Galois correspondence from subHopf algebras to subfields given by the Fundamental Theorem of Galois Theory for abelian Hopf Galois structures on a Galois extension of fields with Galois group Γ, a finite abelian p-group. Applying the connection between regular subgroups of the holomorph of a finite abelian p-group (G,+) and associative, commutati...
متن کاملBrauer Algebras and the Brauer Group
An algebra is a vector space V over a field k together with a kbilinear product of vectors under which V is a ring. A certain class of algebras, called Brauer algebras algebras which split over a finite Galois extension appear in many subfields of abstract algebra, including K-theory and class field theory. Beginning with a definition of the the tensor product, we define and study Brauer algebr...
متن کاملThe ideal structures of crossed products of Cuntz algebras by quasi-free actions of abelian groups
We completely determine the ideal structures of the crossed products of Cuntz algebras by quasi-free actions of abelian groups and give another proof of A. Kishimoto’s result on the simplicity of such crossed products. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition that our algebras become primitive, and compute the Connes spectra and K-groups of our algebras.
