Abstract: In this paper we provide an algorithm to compute the product between two elements in a symbol algebra of degree n and we find an octonion non-division algebra in a symbol algebra of degree three. Starting from this last idea, we try to find an answer to the question if there are division symbol algebras of degree three. The answer is positive and we provide, using MAGMA software, some examples of division symbol algebras of degree 3 and of degree 5. Moreover, we will give some interesting applications of the symbol algebras in number theory.
