Let F be an arbitrary field and let D be a division algebra having center F which is finite dimensional over F. In general, there need not exist a maximal subfield E of D which is Galois over F. If such an E exists, we ลฝ call D a crossed product or G G-crossed product if G G is the Galois group of .
We show that division algebras do not always embed in crossed product division algebras, so the latter do not serve as ''Galois closures'' for division algebras. We construct decomposable noncrossed product division algebras of prime-power index over rational function fields and Laurent series field
commutator is not trivial and therefore a primitive pth root of unity in k. Assume they commute. Then the algebra K they generate over k is
