Field Patching and Galois Cohomology
By Feng Chen

Let T be a complete discrete valuation ring with uniforrmizer t, and X a smooth projective curve over S = SpecT. Let F = K(X) be the function field and let F = K (X) be the completion of F with respect to the discrete valuation defined by the closed fibre X.

In this paper, we construct indecomposable and noncrossed product division algebras over F. This is done by defining an index-preserving homomorphism and using this map s to lift indecomposable and noncrossed product division algebras over F to indecomposable and noncrossed product division algebras over F, respectively.
