Bimodule Structure of Central Simple Algebras

For a maximal separable subfield $K$ of a central simple algebra $A$, we provide a semiring isomorphism between $K$-$K$-bimodules $A$ and $H$-$H$ bisets of $G = \Gal(L/F)$, where $F = \operatorname{Z}(A)$, $L$ is the Galois closure of $K/F$, and $H = \Gal(L/K)$. This leads to a combinatorial interpretation of the growth of $\dim_K((KaK)^i)$, for fixed $a \in A$, especially in terms of Kummer sets.
