A generalization of Dickson’s commutative division algebras. (English) Zbl 1460.17007

In this paper the author generalizes the Dickson’s doubling process over any base field by doubling not just finite field extensions, as in the classical process, but also by doubling a central simple algebra \(B\) over a field \(F\). There are obtained division algebras which are no longer commutative nor associative. The structure of the automorphism group, the nuclei and center of these algebras are determined.
