Abstract

We study systems of quadratic forms over fields and their isotropy over [Formula: see text]-extensions. We apply this to obtain particular splitting fields for quaternion algebras defined over a finite field extension. As a consequence we obtain that every central simple algebra of degree [Formula: see text] is split by a [Formula: see text]-extension of degree at most [Formula: see text].
