Lüroth's and Igusa's theorems over Division Rings

Let $H$ be a division ring of finite dimension over its center, let $H[T]$ be the ring of polynomials in a central variable over $H$, and let $H(T)$ be its quotient skew field. We show that every intermediate division ring between $H$ and $H(T)$ is itself of the form $H(f)$, for some $f$ in the center of $H(T)$. This generalizes the classical Lüroth’s theorem. More generally, we extend Igusa’s theorem characterizing the transcendence degree 1 subfields of rational function fields, from fields to division rings.
