On the decomposition of metabolic involutions
Abstract
The problem of whether a metabolic idempotent of a central simple algebra with involution is contained in an invariant quaternion subalgebra is investigated. As an application, the similar problem is studied for skew-symmetric elements whose squares lie in the square of the underlying field.
