Abstract

If F is a valued field of characteristic p certain tensor products of cyclic F-algebras are called special forms. It is known that if F is maximally complete then every Brauer class of exponent p is represented by a special form. It is shown here that special forms of two symbols are division algebras, but that special forms of three symbols need not be, and can represent indecomposible division algebras of index $p^2$.
