The relation z2n=1 makes z a root of unity, so ∣z∣=1 and normalization gives T=2n/2. Write the binary expansion y=∑j=0n−1​2jyj​. Then zy=∏j​(z2j)yj​, and hence
∣ϕ⟩=⨂j=0n−1​2​∣0⟩+z2j∣1⟩​,
(1)
up to the convention for ordering the binary digits. This explicit tensor product of one-qubit states proves that ∣ϕ⟩ is a product state.
