Abstract: We prove an integral version of the classical Albert-Brauer-Hasse-Noether theorem regarding quaternion algebras over number fields. Let mathfrakA be a quaternion algebra over a number field K and assume that mathfrakA satisfies the Eichler condition; that is, there exists an archimedean prime of K which does not ramify in mathfrakA. Let Omega be a commutative, quadratic mathcalOK-order and let mathcalRsubsetmathfrakA be an order of full rank. Assume that there exists an embedding of Omega into mathcalR. We describe a number of criteria which, if satisfied, imply that every order in the genus of mathcalR admits an embedding of Omega. In the case that the relative discriminant ideal of Omega is coprime to the level of mathcalR and the level of mathcalR is coprime to the discriminant of mathfrakA, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for an order in the genus of mathcalR to admit an embedding of Omega. We explicitly parameterize the isomorphism classes of orders in the genus of mathcalR which admit an embedding of Omega. In particular, we show that the proportion of the genus of mathcalR admitting an embedding of Omega is either 0, 1/2 or 1. Analogous statements are proven for optimal embeddings.
