The quaternion algebra over rational number field can be roughly classified into two types: the 2 by 2 matrix algebra and division rings. Since all 2 by 2 matrices are isomorphic, we only need to classify division rings into non-isomorphic classes. We study the group of norms and the local Hilbert symbols and show that there are exactly two isomorphic classes of quaternion algebras over the local field unless the field is complex number field. Finally, we classify the quaternion algebras over rational number field and define explicitly the group operation of the Brauer group. By Hasse-Minkowski theorem, a quaternion algebra over the rational number field determines a set of local data and such data determines the quaternion algebra.1 Introduction 1 2 Quaternion Algebras over a Field of Characteristic 6= 2 3 2.1 The fundamental theorem . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 2.2 Basic properties of the cyclic algebra H(a; b) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 2.3 Isomorphic classes of cyclic algebras . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8 2.4 Quadratic forms . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 2.5 The quadratic form P(a;b)(x; y; z) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14 3 Quaternion Algebras over Local Fields 16 3.1 The group of local norms . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16 3.2 The Hilbert symbols . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16 3.3 Quaternion algebras over local elds . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 18 3.4 The Herbrand quotient . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 3.5 The proof of Theorem 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 23 3.6 Non-archimedean places . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 4 Quaternion Algebras over Q 26 4.1 The local-global relation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 27 4.2 The Brauer group . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 28 References 31803069 bytesapplication/pdf論文公開時間：2014/08/08論文使用權限：同意無償授權漢彌爾頓四元素環希爾伯特符號Brauer群Hasse-Minkowski定理thesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/264002/1/ntu-103-R01221021-1.pdf
