Wikipedia
In mathematics, a quaternion algebra over a field F is a central simple algebra A over F that has dimension 4 over F. Every quaternion algebra becomes the matrix algebra by extending scalars (= tensoring with a field extension ), i. e. for a suitable field extension K of F, is isomorphic to the 2 × 2 matrix algebra over K.
