Abstract

Let k(t) be the field of rational functions over the field k, let sigma be a k-automorphism of K=k(t), let D=K(X;sigma) be the ring of fractions of the skew polynomial ring K{[}X;sigma], and let D-. be the multiplicative group of D. We show that if N is a noncentral normal subgroup of D-., then N contains a free subgroup. We also prove that when k is algebraically closed and sigma has infinite order, there exists a specialization from D to a quaternion algebra. This allows us to explicitly present free subgroups in D-.. (AU)
