Abstract

It is proved by A. A. Albert that in an ordered division ring, any element algebraic over the center is central. In this paper, we shall investigate the following problem. LetD be an ordered division ring. Suppose every element inD is left algebraic over a maximal subfieldK. Does it follow thatD=K? We prove that the answers are affirmative in some cases.
