Abstract: Let $mathbbD$ be a division ring and $mathbbF$ be a subfield of the center of $mathbbD$ over which $mathbbD$ has finite dimension $d$. Let $n,p,r$ be positive integers and $mathcalV$ be an affine subspace of the $mathbbF$-vector space $M_{n,p}(mathbbD)$ in which every matrix has rank less than or equal to $r$. Using a new method, we prove that $di{m}_{mathbbF}mathcalVleqmax(n,p),rd$ and we characterize the spaces for which equality holds. This extends a famous theorem of Flanders which was known only for fields.
