Dihedral group Updated 2025-07-16
Our notation: , called "dihedral group of degree n", means the dihedral group of the regular polygon with sides, and therefore has order (all rotations + flips), called the "dihedral group of order 2n".
Direct product Updated 2025-07-16
A Cartesian product that carries over some extra structure of the input groups.
E.g. the direct product of groups carries over group structure on both sides.

The Evolution of Bacteria on a 'Mega-Plate' Petri dish by Kishony Lab (2016)
Source. They've made a huge Petri dish with bands of different concentrations of antibiotic, and then they visualize Escherichia coli mutations as new strains manage to make their way into the highest antibiotic concentration strip. mind blowing.
Simple group Updated 2025-07-16
Does not have any non-trivial normal subgroup.
And therefore, going back to our intuition that due to the fundamental theorem on homomorphisms there is one normal group per homomorphism, a simple group is one that has no non-trivial homomorphisms.
Tensor product in quantum computing Updated 2025-07-16
We don't need to understand a super generalized version of tensor products to know what they mean in basic quantum computing!
Intuitively, taking a tensor product of two qubits simply means putting them together on the same quantum system/computer.
When we write the bra-ket notation: that is the same as .
The tensor product is called a "product" because it distributes over addition.
E.g. consider:
Intuitively, in this operation we just put a Hadamard gate qubit together with a second pure qubit.
And the outcome still has the second qubit as always 0, because we haven't made them interact.
The quantum state is called a separable state, because it can be written as a single product of two different qubits. We have simply brought two qubits together, without making them interact.
If we then add a CNOT gate to make a Bell state:
we can now see that the Bell state is non-separable: we've made the two qubits interact, and there is no way to write this state with a single tensor product. The qubits are fundamentally entangled.
