Review text

The main aim of the paper is to prove the following theorem: Let \(A\) be a central simple algebra over either a \(p\)-adic or algebraic number field \(F\). Suppose \(A\) is spanned by a multiplicative semigroup \(\Gamma\subset A\) with the property that the minimal polynomial of every \(g\in\Gamma\) splits over \(F\). Then \(A\) represents the trivial class in the Brauer group of \(F\). The strategy used by the author in the proof of the result is a reduction of the general case to the case when \(\Gamma\) is a compact subgroup of \(A^*\) and \(F\) is a \(p\)-adic field.
