Abstract

We show that a finite-dimensional tame division algebra D over a Henselian field F has a maximal subfield Galois over F if and only if its residue division algebra (Formula presented.) has a maximal subfield Galois over the residue field (Formula presented.). This generalizes the mechanism behind several known noncrossed product constructions to a crossed product criterion for all tame division algebras, and in particular for all division algebras if the residue characteristic is 0. If (Formula presented.) is a global field, the criterion leads to a description of the location of noncrossed products among tame division algebras, and their discovery in new parts of the Brauer group.
