Autour de la décomposition des algèbres d'exposant 2 sur les extensions multiquadratiques

For central simple algebras of exponent $2$ over fields of characteristic $2$ and $2$-cohomological dimension equal to $2$, we study the adapted decomposition to some multiquadratic extensions of the base field. Several remarkable properties are extended to multiquadratic extensions of separability degree at most $4$. We also extend to the characteristic $2$ a result of Elman-Lam-Tignol-Wadsworth by constructing an algebra of exponent $2$ and degree $8$ containing a separable triquadratic extension but which admits no adapted decomposition to this extension. As an application we give an elementary proof of the non-excellence of separable biquadratic extensions.
