BeginningsIn this chapter, we define quaternion algebras over fields by giving a multiplication table, following Hamilton; we then consider the classical application of understanding rotations in ..

InvolutionsIn this chapter, we define the standard involution on a quaternion algebra. In this way, we characterize division quaternion algebras as noncommutative division rings equipped with a standard involution.

Ternary quadratic forms over local fieldsIn this chapter, we classify quaternion algebras over local fields using quadratic forms; this generalizes the classification of quaternion algebras over ..

Quaternion algebras over global fieldsTo motivate the classification of quaternion algebras over ., we consider by analogy a classification of quadratic fields. We restrict to the following class of quadratic fields for the best analogy.
