A note on subgroups in a division ring that are left algebraic over a division subring

Let D be a division ring with center F and K a division subring of D. In this paper, we show that a non-central normal subgroup N of the multiplicative group $$D^*$$ is left algebraic over K if and only if so is D provided F is uncountable and contained in K. Also, if K is a field and the n-th derived subgroup $$D^{(n)}$$ of $$D^{*}$$ is left algebraic of bounded degree d over K, then $$\dim _FD\le d^2$$ .
