Resumen
Given a field F of characteristic 2, we prove that if every three quadratic n-fold Pfister forms have a common quadratic (n- 1) -fold Pfister factor then Iqn+1F=0. As a result, we obtain that if every three quaternion algebras over F share a common maximal subfield then u(F) is either 0, 2 or 4. We also prove that if F is a nonreal field with char(F)≠2 and u(F) = 4 , then every three quaternion algebras share a common maximal subfield.
