Let I’ be a maximal order over a complete discrete rank one valuation ring R in a central simple algebra over the quotient field of R. The purpose of this paper is to determine necessary and sufficient conditions for I’ to be equivalent to a crossed product over a tamely ramified extension of R.

It is a classical result that every central simple algebra over a field k is equivalent to a crossed product over a Galois extension of k. Furthermore, it has been proved by Auslander and Goldman in [2] that every central separable algebra over a local ring is equivalent to a crossed product over an unramified extension.
